The file you should have is ubuntu-10.04-netbook-i386.iso.
Go to
this page and click "show me how" to put Ubuntu on the pen drive. They have a simple installer that will handle it for you.
The reason it tells you you need a disc burner is because .iso files are usually CD images, but Ubuntu Netbook Remix takes some minor (and now automated, thankfully) adjustments to run on a USB drive.
