The file is probably a tar.gz file, containing the source code (and related makefiles & configure scripts). This is the traditional method of software distribution on Unix systems. Installing it is as simple as './configure && make && sudo make install'. If you're on a windows platform (as I suspect you are) it's a little harder. You'll probably want to get a binary package. Your best bet is to look at Cygwin, which contains a prebuilt make along with a lot of other Unix tools. It also comes with a nice point&click installer.
