It's provided on their website as text to copy. So, you choose your own file name.

No. They assume that you know what you're doing, but they do explain how to add it to FileZilla.

It looks like this:
Code:
-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
Proc-Type: 4,ENCRYPTEDDEK-Info: DES-EDE3-CBC,6F2F983101E8D2D6
... lines of excrypted code ...
-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
The converted file that FileZilla created looks like this:
Code:
PuTTY-User-Key-File-2: ssh-rsa
Encryption: aes256-cbc
Comment: imported-openssh-key
Public-Lines: 12
... lines of excrypted code ...
Private-MAC: ... line of encrypted code ...
