Java is probably easier to start out with than C++. It’s also used in many CompSci courses nowadays.

Are you thinking hobby or career? You can download everything you need to get started with Java for free. There are also tutorials on-line which are also free but I’d recommend a good book for something a little more structured. Books are still better for a quick reference point too.

I used an earlier version of this book
http://www.amazon.com/Sams-Teach-Yourself-Programming-Hours/dp/0672328445/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1244191914&sr=8-7
and the latest version seems to have good reviews.

Obviously if you’re thinking of a career, you’ll need some form of qualification but a start like this would let you know if you have a taste for it.

Feel free to email me with more questions.
