Hi, you need to add the key, to do this open a terminal (Applications>Accessories>Terminal) and type
gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 5A9BF3BB4E5E17B5
gpg --export --armor 5A9BF3BB4E5E17B5 | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get update

Here's a youtube video of installing a ppa (http://video.google.com/videosearch?hl=en&rlz=1C1CHMI_enUS345US345&q=ubuntu+install+ppa+key&um=1&ie=UTF-8&ei=_SHtSoKuAYuuswOu2dj1Aw&sa=X&oi=video_result_group&ct=title&resnum=4&ved=0CBgQqwQwAw#).

Adding Launchpad PPA Repositories
Ubuntu 9.10, Karmic Koala, introduces a convenient new command for adding Launchpad PPA (Personal Package Archive) repositories via the command line: add-apt-repository.
The repository is registered with APT and an entry is created in the /etc/apt/sources.list.d folder.
If a public key is required and available it is automatically downloaded and registered.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:<repository-name>
Example: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nhandler
