You always have 2 Applications folders: one is the main Applications folder, where applications available to all users are kept (think: safari, address book, etc). There is another Applications folder in your Home folder where applications available only to you are kept. Mine is and always has been empty. But if I don't want my brother playing that awesome pirated OSX-compatible Halo 3 application, I just keep it there in my Home folder.<div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>So what you're seeing is normal.</div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>P.S.
