			<description><![CDATA[So if you select multiple downloaded JPEGs, for instance, and drop them on Preview in 10.6.2, not all of them will open? In my testing, this bug was mostly resolved, with the main problem remaining that sometimes they would open in multiple windows instead of one.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[No, it actually doesn't work inside the apps -- at least, not for me. It operates exactly as described above, and I'm running 10.6.2]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Your situation sounds a little different - I'm not quite sure what you're running into such that you get a confirmation dialog upon opening files unless the files are something Mac OS X sees as potentially executable. But perhaps Leopard had a variant on the bug that was applicable in fewer situations.<br><br>I reproduced this with JPEGs: downloading a bunch of them and then dropping them on Preview. Worked fine in Leopard, failed (as Doug describes) in Snow Leopard.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[It's not Snow Leopard specific.  I've had this same problem for ages, using BBEdit in 10.5.8 to open downloaded files.  Open a batch with drag-and-drop or via Command-O, and the first one gets the confirm dialog while the rest are "forgotten".]]></description>
