Hey. I downloaded frostwire (ubuntu 8.04) and it wont open.I ran the installer and now its located in Applications > Internet but when I click on it nothing happens? Any ideas?

Run it from a terminal and see what error messages you get. Post them here if they don't mean much to you.

What code should I run? Sorry I'm new.
Sudo apt-get install FrostWire?

Just run 'frostwire'. I don't use Ubuntu so I'm not sure where the executable would be but if you've installed it 'frostwire' or it may be 'Frostwire' should work.

Starting FrostWire...

You need to instal or update java(JRE 1.5).
You can do it from your Ubuntu repos. I think it's either 'Synaptics' or 'Add/Remove Software' but as I said before I don't use Ubuntu.
