if you use terminal, it's easier

cd /path/to/file

change /path/to/file to where you downloaded the file to (remember Linux is CASE SENSITIVE, so use tab when you can to autocomplete directory names).

You can thn run:

chmod +x ./filename.bin; sudo ./filename.bin

replace filename.bin with the ACTUAL filename (again, case sensitive) of the file and it will run.
