If they are .deb files, rightclick on them and choose install. Also check out easy ubuntu at http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=86 which has alot of common apps to get you up and running very fast.

Hi to all of you veteran users,following the LinuxWorld event at Olympia 2 last week, I saw a demo on Kubuntu and have installed it onto a spare desktop and I am more than pleased. However as I am new to Linux and Kubuntu I am already struggling. I want to install 2 programmes that I downloaded, AVG Anti Virus for Linux and Skype for Linux (Debian Version). They are sat on my desktop but I can't work out how to install them! Help.Secondly I am using Konqueror to access my webmail but when I open messages I just see two blank panes? Any suggestions, is this a simple setting that I can apply?
Many thanks in anticipation and I have to admit I am VERY impressed with Kubuntu you are doing a great job.Roy
