Flash Player help

Oky-doky, another question

I downloaded Flash Player for Linux, and it saved it into my /home/user place......

I went to the terminal and typed in tar xf install_flash_player_7_linux (since it's a .tar not .tar.gz), and it said install_flash_player_7_linux no such file or directory......

But it's in my /home/user place, how do I make it work?
