Disk utility wierdness

[William H. Magill]

I have a number of drives on my 10.2.3 system.

After the last security update, I went to fix permissions and noticed a 
strange "thing."

The left hand panel contains a dividing line for some reason, and below 
that line is a .DMG file (belongs to an epson printer driver update.) 
Above the line are all of the "normal" disk drives.

All of the information about the image is correct - not mounted, its 
location, etc.


A) What does the line indicate?

B) Why is the DMG there? -- after reboot, i.e. when the DMG is NOT 
mounted.

C) Why don't all the other DMG files I have on various drives 
(including on that same drive) show up in Disk Utility?

D) Why doesn't it go away?
