This would be done as root. 

-->Sorry if I am being very blunt, but, if you do not know how to extract and 
install these files you are much better off not even trying. This can be a 
very dangerous undertaking and destroy your system. <---

But if still you want to then.

1) Open a terminal
2) Become root (su -)
3) Untar and/or extract the files. tar -xvzf file name or tar -xvjf filename 
or tar -xvf depending on the file. (For .bin  chmod -rx filename 
then ./filename.
4) Install per the directions in INSTALL or README.
