I seem to remember that when I downloaded a dmg containing an app, OSX would launch a warning when I chose to open the dmg. The warning would say something like "this file contains an app are you sure you want to continue".
Today I have downloaded a number of apps, and all of the dmgs opened without the warning.
Has anyone else noticed this?
Did I imagine the previous existence of the warnings?
Can the warnings be turned off (though there is another thread saying they cannot)?
While I am asking questions, is there a cheap cure for baldness?

Did you install Taboo and forget that you installed it? This plug in contains a feature to disable the download warnings. However, it only works with PowerPC Macs. Hoping the developer releases an Intel version soon.

Come to think of it, yes. I did get the warning, then have it stop. but I don't remember if I checked off the don't show me this again box or not. It's rare I do, but I thought that one was silly since I don't download unless it's from a site I know well.

Fear is but a wall of illusion to that which will make you happy.
I found out what it is. In Safari prefs - General, you need to have the "Open safe files" option selected. I must have de-selected. Perhaps that is what However was referring to.
