It wasn't labeled but I presume it's a pd patch so I added the appropriate extension and tried opening it in pd. Unfortunately Pd doesn't like it and shows its disaproval by crashing.

That's what happens before pd crashes. I guess I'll try fiddling around with this again tomorrow.
David,
I apologise if this has already been answered. tut.tgz is a tarred and gziped archive. It looks like you have managed to decompress the archive (so it is no longer gzipped). You now need to untar it. To do this you need tar for windows, which can be found at http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/tar.htm. Other programs may also untar.
Once the archive is extracted, you will get a directory called tut containing a load of pd files.
BTW: thanks for asking the original question - the tutorial is very useful!

Winzip (which is widespread) does both at once, but it's important to have .tgz not .tar.gz as extension.
all the best, Thomas

Yep, that's actually one of the reasons why I use .tgz normally for tar.gz-files. The other is, that some browsers (used to) decompress *.gz files on the fly without changing the filename accordingly, so that you'd end up with "tut.tar.gz" when it in fact already is a tar-file like "tut.tar".
Oh, and it seems, 7-zip is a GPL'd free alternative to Winzip, if you don't want to pay.
