Can't install/download

[dazedintranslation]

When I go on a website to install something like "Flock" it shows on my computer with a folder and a bunch random stuff in it. I NEED HELP.

what you see is a tarball
cd into the directory in terminal and type

./configure
make
sudo make install

those are 3 different commands :) just in case you didnt know :D
good luck
