What does the file you downloaded look like?
does it end with .rpm --> try rpm -i filename.rpm
does it end with tar.gz --> try tar zvxf filename.tar.gz and then read the readme file.

tar xvfz instaler_file.tar.gz
chmod 755 whatever_the_name_of_the_installer.bin
and execute it from the shell
./whatever_the_name_of_the_installer.bin
