Try: VirtualDub. www.virtualdub.org

If you do not like the somewhat rudimental layout, you can try a trial
version of Adobe's Premiere Elements. Also Ulead has some quite basic
video-editors of good quality. Have fun.

I tried virtualdub, but I get an error saying that no audio decompressor
could be found, so while the video will play, there's no audio. The
video plays just find in Windows Media Player. I've read a lot about
this codec and that codec, but I cannot find the solution. Can someone
help me fix this problem, or should I go with another program?

That may mean the required codec is not installed. You can try testing
the clip with GSpot or Avicodec, which shall tell you the audio codec
used by the clip.
