Hello, and welcome to linux, we hope you enjoy your stay ! This .bin signifies that it is a binary file. For more information goto www.google.com/linux and search "howto install linux binaries". You should figure it out from there. I also suggest changing your title to something more specific like: "how to install binaries" , people like specifics around here.
