By default, OS X Mountain Lion cannot launch 3rd party non-Mac App Store apps. Remedy this by checking Allow From Anywhere in your System Preferences > Security settings. Hope this helps!

You can also ctrl-click and click open. It will remember to open this app normally the next time.

Apple created this option for "piracy" or "security"?

Tony why your website does not have all the guides in categories for easy use? Like Snow Leopard=Guides Mountain Lions=Guides etc.

Had to use this setting to be able to install Lnx2Mac Driver in MultiBeast.

"right-click -> open with installer" works, too and will remember the app
