You mean you've downloaded a Windows setup file (.exe) and you're trying to install it on Ubuntu? Ubuntu doesn't use .exe files unless you install Wine.

Ubuntu has Pidgin Instant Messenger (Applications > Internet > Pidgin Instant Messenger) which works with Yahoo.

I recommend getting WINE i have it so i can play WoW lol sure its a nerdy game but i have to admit its very addicting plus a few of my freinds play it pretty neat little program WINE is!
