i cannot understand the "bad interpreter" part, but are you running the command from the same directory where you have untarred the sources ? try doing a "ls | grep configure" to see if you have the configure script in the directory. if it is present then do a "./configure -help" or maybe "--help" if the "-help" option does not work. this may list out a set of other options that you may need to supply to the configure script.
