I'm using LPA Prolog for Windows (only the interpreter) and it is very
good, i really like it. The compiler (needed to build stand alone executables)
is very expensive.

You may have a look at Cogent Prolog for Windows. It's cheap and very easy
to interface to other languages.~

: Can anyone give some hints to help me choose between them?

: Other thing: I heard that there are problems with the Arity Prolog Garbage Collection... Is that a fact??
: And other bugs???

: Thanks in advance...
