How can I easily automate a number of consistent steps in Windows?

Question by livecultures2: How can I easily automate a number of consistent steps in Windows?
Every day I have to follow a set of steps that are almost exactly the same: visit a certain web page, click through some options, open some emails, download the attachment, combine a file excel file together and send an email. I am certain there must be a way to automate at least some part of this, but I dont know what application or programming language I can easily do this with. I heard that Apple computers let you automate steps similar to making a movie, is there anything similar for windows that I can download?
