Re: facing the below error when trying to update or installl software
Usually the "Something wicked happened resolving..." is an indication that your DNS configuration is unable to resolve the address that it is trying to resolve
Are you behind a proxy maybe?
Maybe it is simply a case of checking your network connection settings, resetting it?
Then retry the "apt-get update"
Re: facing the below error when trying to update or installl software
Yes iam using proxy .. plz if pro from my dns can you help me how to configure it?

You will have to disable the repositories http://64.repository.backtrack-linux.org/, http://all.repository.backtrack-linux.org, when I click on them with browser it is shown a page full of 0s and 1s, no any software package. What for are them?, what ubuntu are you using?
Disable them in sources.list
