[QUOTE="MacNewbie, post: 295105, member: 23576"] THANKS MAN! one more question if u dont mind :) i downloaded the program "Transmission" for torrents...after downloading and installing it left two files on my desktop one titled "transmission-0.6.1.dmg" with an icon of a paper folded on the corner and one titled "transmission 0.6.1" with an icon of a smooth harddrive looking thing in order to run the program i figured out that i have to click on "transmission 0.6.1" with the smooth white harddrive looking icon above it. this then opens up another window and i have to click on another icon in order for the program to start.. and then to get the icon of the program onto my dock i have to click n drag now my question is this.. 1.) what am i supposed to do with the two files on my desktop? i thought i could just drag them into the "applications" folder but doing so still leaves a copy of the icon on my deskktop.. 2.) how do i uninstall the program should i want to at a later date? thanks eric!
