We recently mentioned the new OS X malware that's floating around the (nether side) of the net these days. Over at Macworld, Rob Griffiths has an extensive article discussing the ways you can tell if a piece of downloaded software is fishy. The tips range from the obvious (only download from trusted sources) to the arcane (diving into packages to examine the installer components).
