Downloaded flip4mac software and now Quicken download opens in quicktime

Help. I tried to get sat tv on my mac and it turns out you need to have windows vista and parallel desktop installed. I downloaded the windows media player and flip4mac prematurely and now downloaded installer for quicken 2006 for mac with .dmg.hmx extension opens in quicktime and I can't install it. Very complex.

Flip4Mac, as you may know, is for viewing WMV video on a Mac. It will also convert to other formats thru Quicktime.
Windows Media Player isn't supported on a Mac anymore...stick to F4M.
If you have a file that appears to be associated with the wrong default app to open it, you have to change that detail within the "get info" window. Select the .dmg file (or whatever file desired), and press command i. At the bottom of the get info window you'll see "open with". There you can assign what program/app will open that particular file type.
Don't know why this can happen to files, but it's not a F4M problem, just a Mac quirk.
