You must be aware that it's not advisable to download and install applications from internet files.
Most applications for Ubuntu are available through the Software Center or using a package manager like aptitude (http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/aptitude) or synaptic (http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/synaptic) to download and install packages. Installing from the Software Center is much more secure, much easier, and will allow the app to get updates from Ubuntu.

That said, regarding what you ask the answer is that you cannot install a .tar.gz because these files are gzip-compressed tarballs.
What you can do is to open a terminal window and navigate to the folder where you have your .tar.gz file and extract it by running the following commands:

tar xvzf PACKAGENAME.tar.gz
Then:

./configure
make
make install
