Usually programs are not installed in Linux like in Windows. The usual windows routine of going to the vendor site, downloading, and installing is not used. Linux distros usually use something called package managers. I don't know what kind of package manager Knoppix uses. As it is Debian based I'll bet for apt, but I'm not sure. You should probably look for help on Knoppix forums. BTW, Knoppix is the best LiveCD that I know. I use it daily to repair broken boxes, but I don't feel that it's the best solution for a novice Linux install, probably distros like Mandriva, Ubuntu, Mepis... are better suited.
