Based on the tip at Mac OS X Hints I whipped up the following file which allows Safari to automatically open links to Google Earth files:
Code:
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.comProperty-List-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>LSRiskCategorySafe</key>
<dict>
<key>LSRiskCategoryExtensions</key>
<array>
<string>kml</string>
<string>kmz</string>
</array>
</dict>
</dict>
</plist>
Save this in a text file named "com.apple.DownloadAssessment.plist" in your Home > Library > Preferences folder, relaunch Safari and Google Earth links will open automatically. Also make sure that you have "Open safe files after downloading" checked in Safari's prefs.
