.tar.tar, 'eh?

Strange.

tar -xvf xxx.tar.tar

then see what you have and act accordingly.  A tar file?  tar -xvf
xxx.tar.  A directory?  cd xxx && ls ...stuff like that.

If you're in KDE, you can just click on the archive in Konqueror and go
from there, too.

If there's a program in there you want to install... well... that really
depends on what the program is.  Inside the archive there should be
instructions.  Often (aptly) named INSTALL or README or README.install 
:-)

Good luck.
