Looking for something to compress video.

Ok I capture videos using Premiere Pro 1.5. a 10minute video is usually 1.5GBs. Is there any program to compress this? I can usually open it in Windows movie maker and then save it and it goes down to about 130MBs without loosing much quality. But there is probably an easier way to do this. Are there any good programs out there?
 
All freeware:

Windows Media Encoder (complete Windows Media conversion suite)
xvid/x264 Video for Windows interfaces (generally used in tandem with VirtualDubMod)
mencoder (powerful non-GUI encoder, but scriptable)
MeGUI (.NET front-end GUI for mencoder (can compress with xvid/x264/other MPEG-4 codecs))
AVI.NET (.NET program to compress into more compatible files, specifically for use with standalone devices (dvd players, etc))

I recommend using xvid/x264 with MeGUI. Windows Media is more ubiquitous and is almost as good though. I just prefer x264 because it's open-source, cross-platform, and frequently updated.
