If u r working in WinDows; softwares like WINRAR, WINZIP can be used to open those files.

In Unix/
uncompress -cf XXX.tar.gz will unzip the file, and u will get XXX.tar.
Then u can use tar -xvf XXX.tar ; to untape the file.

In Linux/ use gunzip or gzip instead of uncompress.

what I do and has always worked but as it is done downloading in Linux there is an extract option at the top of the display window and that will extract it to where ever you choose.

You've already received some good replies. I want to note that if you are on Linux, tar does have a -z switch to uncompress GZIP'd files. You'd do something like this:

% tar zxf file.tar.gz
