Mac OS X 10.5: About file quarantine
Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard and later improves on download validation by providing file quarantine in some applications, such as Safari, iChat, and Mail. File quarantine-aware applications that download files from the Internet or receive files from external sources (such as email attachments) will attach file quarantine attributes. The first time you open a potentially unsafe file in Finder, Spotlight, or from the Dock, the file quarantine feature will warn you about unsafe file types. You should cancel opening the file if you have any doubts about its safety. When you open a file you downloaded for the first time, you will get a quarantine dialog box asking "Are you sure you want to open it?" to confirm that it is OK to open the file:

WWW::NicoVideo::Download(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation			     WWW::NicoVideo::Download(3pm)

NAME

       WWW::NicoVideo::Download - Download FLV/MP4/SWF files from nicovideo.jp

SYNOPSIS

	 use WWW::NicoVideo::Download;

	 my $client = WWW::NicoVideo::Download->new(
	     email => 'your-email@example.com',
	     password => 'PASSWORD',
	 );

	 $client->download("smNNNNNN", &callback);

DESCRIPTION

       WWW::NicoVideo::Download is a module to login, request and download video files from Nico Nico Douga.

METHODS

       new
	     $client = WWW::NicoVideo::Download->new(%options);

	   Creates a new WWW::NicoVideo::Download instance. %options can take the following parameters and they can also be set and get using
	   accessor methods.

       email, password
	   Sets and gets email and password to login Nico Nico Douga. Required if the User Agent object doesn't have the valid session or cookie
	   to login to the site.

       user_agent
	   Sets and gets LWP::UserAgent object to use to send HTTP requests to nicovideo.jp server. If you want to reuse the browser Cookie that
	   has the signed-in state, you can set the Cookie to the UserAgent object here.

	     # use Safari sesssions
	     use HTTP::Cookies::Safari;
	     my $cookie_jar = HTTP::Cookies::Safari->new(
		 file => "$ENV{HOME}/Library/Cookies/Cookies.plist",
	     );
	     my $client = WWW::NicoVideo::Download->new;
	     $client->user_agent->cookie_jar( $cookie_jar );

       download
	     $client->download($video_id, $file_path);

	   Prepares the download by logging in and requesting the FLV API, and then download the video file. The second parameter is passed to
	   LWP::UserAgent's request() method, so you can pass either local file path to be saved, or a callback function.

       prepare_download
	     my $url = $client->prepare_download($video_id);

	   Prepares the download and returns the URL of the actual video. See eg/fetch-video.pl how to make use of this method.
