you're trying to run a windoze program. windoze programs will not run under linux systems such as ubuntu. however, if you install wine from synaptic package manager, you might be able to run it. some programs can be run this way. you can check the wine database to see if the program you downloaded is supported by it

www.winehq.com

click on apps db then search for your program

Can you help with this problem?
