Hello, first post here and apologies if this has been covered before. I've had a look around but can't wrap my head around it.

I sent some BTC from my windows wallet to on online exchange wallet this morning but the transaction has a question mark next to it in the windows client,  and on block chain it's just jumping around in the confirmation queue over and over again. Not confirming at all.

I think it has something to do with the fact no fees were paid, if I had known would have paid, but the client auto has 0 fees or perhaps I changed it? Not sure

Anyhow what the is best course of action, I read something about using PYwallet and deleting the unconfirmed transaction but can't figure out how to use it, can't even run the file as windows doesn't recognise it. And the local host link doesn't load in my browser. (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=35214.0)

Will my BTC come back in a few days,  or do i need to do something?

It will get confirmed, but it takes more time.
Send transactions with fee in the future.

Yep, if there were lost of inputs (say 10 $10 payments in BTC to one address) then it will take even longer
You can alternatively double spend it, that would be much faster

- snip -

There is no guarantee of this.  It will almost certainly be confirmed eventually, but it could take days, weeks, or even months.  You just have to wait for a miner (or pool) to be generous enough to include your free transaction in a block that they create.
