my first choice: FDR Tools ... amazing stuff!

the Basic version is free, the Advanced version and the Photoshop plugin cost €39 each (€59 bundled)

Hugin is a free tool that can create HDR images. It can also stitch pictures together to obtain a panorama.

Huge tutorial here at Gizmodo- create-stunningly-realistic-high-dynamic-range-photographs. Based on Photoshop, but I'm sure that there's be some useful tips and techniques in there for any software.

I've used Photomatix to great success, although it is not cheap.
