OK. Then you have to install MikTeX 2.6:

pdfTeX is an engine ---you need a series of macros (plain TeX, LaTeX  
or ConTeXt) and other ancillary files to run your TeX files. That's  
why you need a TeX distribution like MikTeX.

For general TeX questions, there is a good mailing list:

Also, MikTeX has support forums and a mailing list:
