Ok. I was looking up some Limp Bizkit Songs on http://www.mxtabs.net and I noticed that the guitars are tuned all weird and I dont know how to tune like that.
The tuning is...

String 1 - C#
2 - G#
3 - E
4 - B
5 - F#
6 - C#

Is it obvious? Im kinda new at guitar so if this is a really stupid question im sorry.
Rock on.

No such thing as a stupid question! Stupid Answers, maybe!
that tuning is just standard tuning ( same note intervals from string to string) but tuned down 1&1/2 steps or 3 half steps, whichever you prefer, ie... one fret=1/2 step, the E string tuned down one half step is D#, 2 half steps (or 1 whole step) is D, 3 half steps is C#, so,,,,,,

E tuned down 3 half steps C#
B ---------------------- G#
G ---------------------- E
D ---------------------- B
A ----------------------- F#
E ------------------------C#

^standard ^ Limp Bizkit,KoRn, green beans and fried chicken, strings will be real loose, better use really heavy gauge strings, or buy a 7 string and put a capo on the 2nd fret..................

Well I knew it was just tuned down from regular. But how do I get the tones? I mean I dont have a piano or anything so I dont know how...
