Ah!  That has happened to me as well.  I don't think it has anything 
specifically to do with the browser.  I am reasonably sure the dmg is 
the same regardless of how it is downloaded.  I have no idea why this 
happens with certain programs but like you I just delete the old version 
before installing the new.

BTW, I don't think I have ever had this problem with Calibre.  I have 
had problems downloading Calibre but not installing it.
