That's because the rox-filer's working directory is your home directory.
(cd `dirname "$@"` && tar xzf "$@") or something similar should work,
but you're better off using Archive
http://rox.sourceforge.net/desktop/Archive?PHPSESSID=4f24c9d74f16710e99a6ca535d9c70ba
 or file-roller. Archive is included in the rox-all package.
