[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 966815, member: 8287"] To add to what Dysfunction said, say you download Firefox.DMG. A DMG is a Disk Image. You click on it and it opens and mounts another folder on the desktop and opens a Finder Window. In that window will be the Firefox Application. Drag that to the Applications folder. After that close the Window and drag that folder to the trash and it will unmount. Then you can take the Firefox.dmg and either move it to downloads for later use or throw it in the trash and empty.
