Yes. Add the ".pkg" file type to your web browser's preferences and
tell it that .pkg files belong to Newton Connection Utilities.
You can also do this in the Internet Control panels, "Advanced" tab,
select "File mapping".
If there is already a mapping for ".pkg" present it's probaby for the old
AppleLink online service software, which used that for compressed file
archives it created. You can safely delete it and replace it with one
pointing to NCU.
