Audacity: converting music to MP3?

I combined a bunch of songs in Audacity and am basically done but when I try to export the file to mp3 format it says I need a “LAME MP3 encoder” or lame_enc.dll. HELP??? Tell me what I should do.

From Audacity website
How do I download and install the LAME MP3 encoder?

Because of software patents, we cannot distribute MP3 encoding software ourselves. Follow these instructions to use the free LAME encoder to export MP3 files with Audacity.
Windows

1. Go to the LAME download page.
2. Under “For Audacity on Windows”, left-click on the link “libmp3lame-win-3.98.2.zip” and save the zip folder to anywhere on your computer.
3. When you have finished downloading the ZIP folder, unzip it and save the file lame_enc.dll that it contains to anywhere on your computer.
4. The first time you use the “Export as MP3″ command, Audacity will ask you where lame_enc.dll is saved.
5. In case of difficulty, please view our more detailed instructions on the Audacity Wiki.

Mac OS 9 or X

1. Go to the LAME download page.
2. Click to download either “Lame Library v3.98.2 for Audacity on OSX.dmg” or “LameLib-Carbon.sit”, according to your operating system.
3. Double-click the .dmg to extract “Lame Library v3.98.2 for Audacity on OSX.pkg” to Finder, or use Stuffit to extract “LameLib” from the .sit (either of these may happen automatically).
4. Double-click the .pkg to install “libmp3lame.dylib” in /usr/local/lib/audacity, or save “LameLib” anywhere on your computer.
5. The first time you use the “Export as MP3″ command, Audacity will ask you where libmp3lame.dylib or LameLib is saved.

Linux/Unix
Follow these instructions on our Wiki to download and install a suitable LAME package from the internet.
