Can anyone tell me what I'm seeing in the night sky?

I've noticed for the last few months a bright star, it is south westerly not to high of the horizon, it comes out early in the evening, it is constant and very bright. I'm no way a conspiracy theorist but I was browsing through you tube and ended up in this section about Niburi planet x and some people where discussing this star, very different opinions, but from different parts of the world they noticed it.

I'm just curious to know from people who know what their talking about,

thank you.

Note I know nothing about Astronomy!!!!!!!

Update:

Venus right so thanks for that.

A hoax thanks for that too.

    I believe it is Venus.

    Wasn't it just a few months ago that we were able to see 3 planets.....Venus, Mars and Mercury (I think)?

    I too don't know much about Astronomy.

    You know nothing about astronomy, but about Planet X? o.O

    Planet X is a hoax, what you see is with certainty Venus, the evening star.

    Go to your search engine and find "Sky Chart III" download it. With this program you can enter your location, what direction you're facing, and the time you see the star and it will show you the night sky at that time from where you are. Click on the object in the sky and it will give you a name, distance, and lots of other useless info for a non-astronomer.

    Venus is easily the brightest object in the SW sky for a few hours after sunset.
