This question is more common than almost any other. Search the forums, it's a good procedure suggested in the FAQ/Rules (you've read those, right?), you'll find plenty. We have some plans to centralize this sort of thing into a FAQ, but it isn't a done deal at this point. Welcome to the forums.

People usually recommend Python for beginner programming.

Yep, Python would be my recommendation. There's a good beginner's guide to python here.

Just to go against the Python grain... try out C++. (although, either or would be a good start, chances are high that Python will be easier for you).
