Either:

Right-click the file, go to permissions, and check the "executable" flag

or

chmod +x ./unetbootin-linux-274

after that:

double-click the file, it should run

or

./unetbootin-linux-274

I am sure your answer would solve my question. However I wont be trying it. The reason is I downloaded a windows version on another computer and being particularly careful about drive selection I installed Fedora 7 onto a 4 gig usb drive. It took a very long time at the and of which it didnt work but worse than that it trashed the MBR on my widows system. Fortunatly I was able to use fixmbr and was able to rescue my windows system. No this program is not for me !!!!!!!!!!!!!.
