Run it with "./T2D.bin" isntead of just "T2D.bin" ?

A little more information would be nice; what are you doing, what's it saying in error...

Sorry i was meaning when i download torque (tge) its in a .bin file, and normally i just double click a .bin file in gnome and it runs either the program or the installer, but no such luck with this one, it just asks me to pick a program to run it with, and if i try ./torquegameengineetc.bin from konsole it just gives permission denied

Ah.
chmod +x TGESDK.bin
./TGESDK.bin

If there are problems with it, the you probably need to download usign something that's not mozilla and not IE. Think "lynx", "wget", or "firefox, if you're desperate". Beware helpful applications that break newlines in things that they download.
