First of all, make sure you have installed Java on your system before you install LimeWire since it will look for it during the installation process... Then, you would want to change the file to executable by issuing this command,
chmod 755 LimeWireLinux.bin (or whatever the name of the file is!)
Then, just run it to install LimeWire on your system by
./LimeWireLinux.bin
Let me know by e-mail if you need further assistance.
