Hi! open a terminal (Applications-> Accessories->Terminal), then (assuming the file is in the HOME folder), type:

sudo chmod +x netbeans-6.8.-ml-linux.sh

./netbeans-6.8.-ml-linux.sh

Note that the first command will ask you for your password, and that the filename MUST be written exactly as it appears (you can accomplish this easily pressing [Tab] after typing a few characters).

You can also use a third party application such as Ailurus (http://ailurus.googlecode.com/files/ailurus_10.01.5-0ppa1_all.deb) to install the file for you.

Hope this helps!
