What do you mean with "Ha. Ha."?

Maybe you should ask the author of the program for a Linux version 
installable as a package for Ubuntu. I know it is possible because I did 
make it work about a year ago for a previous version of Ubuntu. However 
it wasn't easy to find all the dependencies.

Other than that - why did you install firestarter if you disable the 
firewall? And are you sure it is disabled? What is the output of

sudo iptables -L

in a terminal?
