You need to alter your Internet file type settings so that .pkg files are
assigned to Newton Connection utilties when downloaded. It's in the
Internet Control Panel. You may find that a file extention to Mac
type-and-creator mapping already exists for .pkg files, assigned to the
old AppleLink online service compressed file format. Just change it to
point at NCU (I rather doubt you have too many AppleLink package
around.... ;-)

Net Hopper doesn't support installing packages.

(this was probably in the FAQ too)
