[QUOTE="The Vindicat3d, post: 639208, member: 41093"] To answer your first question, open up the Finder, go to your Home folder (it should be named whatever the username is) and then click and drag the downloads folder to the RIGHT side of the dock. The thing that you are seeing on your desktop is a DMG or .dmg it is sort of like a .zip file in the sense that it contains the file you want inside of it. OSX doesn't usually need to install a program like in Windows the program is contained within itself, so when you download a .dmg you are going to want to open that up copy the app to anywhere else on your computer (usually your applications folder) and than eject the .dmg and away you go!
