Something like
This Spec
should do you just fine.
Basically, beast mastery will make your pet a machine. It's arguably the best levelling spec for ANY class in the game. Throw points into it, grab a
Tenacity Pet
and they are wizards at holding aggro, bears and crocs generally have an easier time, but they all get the job done.
The other 2 specs focus on your own damage, and the pet is just there to supplement. Beast mastery will make levelling go smoothly.

Yeah BM is the main Solo/ Leveling spec. And when Cataclysm comes BM will become the best Raiding spec too.

Really? Don't stress me... I hate playing BM...
This thought is based off the fact that BM is getting a buff and the other two specs are not. Of course there are two major problems with making the claim now about which spec will provide the best DPS for raiding in Cata:
1) BM is currently siginificantly behind the MM and SV in DPS output, will this buff make BM more powerful then the other two or will it only make the difference slightly smaller? Nobody at this point is sure.
2) Nobody has any idea about how the change to Focus is going to work out currently. We do not know how this is going to effect shot priorities and focus regen both of which will obviously have a major impact on the amount of DPS we can do.
3) We have no idea how the stats will play out with the talents in each tree (remember, they're all changing), how each specs playstyle might be different with focus/shot management, how...hell, we don't know anything.
Its not like we're just raising the level cap again, remember, EVERYTHING is changing, from stats, to talents, to class mechanics. Saying "X spec is getting buffed but Y and Z specs are already ahead" means nothing as of now.
BM is still the best leveling spec, but below 44 having a wolf/cat can be better, especially taking out single targets. Bear/Croc after that is great though.

Although Blizz did specifically say that Hunters will no longer "go oom" (or whatever the focus equivalent is) for long periods of time anymore. Which should give all specs significantly more sustainable dps over the course of a long fight.
