The .c file is the C source code for the module, you will need to
complie this, using at a guess, the gcc compiler.

If you look at the bottom of that page, it does say that binaries are
available for registerd users, and that the source code is provided
free under the GPL.

So, either compile yourself, see if someone can do for you, or a
compiled version is availble for download elsewhere or register (=A350
minimum by the looks of it)

Can't help much with specifics of gcc, been far to long since I've
played with that, but I'm sure google can or the other helpful people
around here.
