AFAIK, it should be already available in Ubuntu repositories (12.10), so simply do this:

sudo apt-get install hping3

In case that it's really tar.gz, then you can extract it by using:
tar -xvzf hping3.tar.gz

Then, you have to compile the source code, typically by using "make" command (you'll need installing the build tools):

sudo apt-get install build-essential

Take this as a hint ;-).
