Cannot install Civilization 1.74 patch when using Leopard.

Apparently, this is a bug in the way early versions of Leopard handled some of our patch installers. In more recent versions of Leopard, this should no longer be an issue. If you are still getting this issue, we have found that if you download the patch with Firefox choose "save to disc" instead of "open with" it will download a .dmg (disc image) file to your desktop. If you open the disc image and drag the 1.74 installer to your desktop and launch it from there, the patch will install. In other words, the patch installer is not working if the installer is launched from inside the downloaded .dmg file, but it will launch from the desktop. By default, Safari automatically opens .dmg files but there is a way to turn this off in the Safari preferences. We have gotten inconsistent results with Safari, so we really recommend using Firefox.
