First of all you have mis-spelled Ubuntu, and you need to install wine to make bitcomet run on ubuntu. Transmission is the default bittorent client for ubuntu. You dont need antivirus coz most known viruses only run on window$, If you want to learn more about the security. Read more here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=510812

You can install vlc player or other programs using synaptic, go to System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager
Then enter your password and click OK. You can click the Search button or press Control-F to search for software. Once you've found the software you want to install, right-click it and mark it for installation. Once you've marked all the software packages you want to install (or remove, too), click Apply, confirm by clicking Apply when prompted, and then wait for the package files to download and install. Once they've installed, click Close.

Can you help with this problem?
