easiest? hmm.. well go for the most powerful and learn it instead, it will give you more in the long run and also.. it aint that hard! :)

GIMP and Paint.NET i would say is as good as it get when free...

Paint.Net HERE

GIMP HERE

And remember it wont break if you try new buttons and there are loads of tutorials out there, have FUN!
