You need to unpack the files ending with .tar Easiest way is to right click on them in konqueror and choose to open them with the archiver. Tell it to extract all the files, then check what's in the directory it creates. Hopefully there will be a readme or install file that documents how to go about installing.
"./configure" and "make install" are the usual two steps, but that doesn't always apply, so look for instructions. The .bin file should be directly executable. Just cd to the directory it lives in and type "./j2.....bin" without the quotes. The rar file - no idea!
