As of Mac OSX 10.8, Apple has implemented security checks to make sure that unauthorized software doesn’t get installed. If you attempt to install software from an unidentified developer (such as the SU VPN) you’ll get told that the download is damaged and can’t be opened.This is a a security setting that has to be changed to allow for the VPN to get installed.
