Answer 1

taken 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. Click on any link from the list of identical "lame-3.96.1" links.
3. When you have finished downloading LAME, unzip it and save the file lame_enc.dll 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.

Mac OS 9 or X

1. Go to the LAME download page.
2. Download the version of LameLib for your operating system.
3. When you have finished downloading, use Stuffit Expander to extract the files. (This may happen automatically.)
4. Save the file called "LameLib" anywhere on your computer.
5. The first time you use the "Export as MP3" command, Audacity will ask you where LameLib is saved.
***********************************************
You can't open Lame mp3 encoder because it's not an application. It's a plug-in used by Audio programs to save files in Mp3 format.
