Diskimagemounter

Hi people,
I'm new here... so yeah hi
Recently I've been trying to clean up my computer because it's been acting a bit slow at times. I've started a new account/username and in the process got rid of any unesseary( or what I thought were unesseary files). But by accident I think I deleted one important application that I need.
I first noticed this when I tried to download a program(dmg) and it didn't open. I actually knew that it wasn't gunna work before it even finished downloading because during the process, the image that normally appears when it downloads, wasn't there. And as expected when I clicked on it, it said there is no default application. So after searching for answers online , I found out I need to mount it using DiskImageMounter.app. I searched for it in Finder and got nothing. So, I must've erased it accidently. The problem is that I can't download anything without this cuz of course everything is a dmg, and btw....... the one .sit file I tried didn't work either.
Basically I've searching for online for ways download DiskImageMounter.app. and have no luck. I'm hoping I can get Utilities Folder off one of the MAC computers @ my college and copy it onto a disc. I don't have the original disc to reinstall it. Then c if that works on my MAC OSX 10.2. Now 3 questions.............
DiskImageMounter.app. is normally found in the Utilities Folder/which is in applications right?
And does the computer ,that I copy off of, have to be the exact version as mine which is btw MAC OSX 10.2. Because they all are really new, but so is mine.
If anyone could help me out I'd, really appreciate it. I really need this application. Thanx

  4. For example, if the ISO image is in / Downloads / Files and the filename is example.iso, the code would be:
    hdiutil mount ~ / Downloads / Files / example.iso

  5. Copy or write down the destination folder (required for unmounting) that you will see after mounting the ISO image. For example: / volume / example

  6. Blow Enter.

  7. You can visit the location in Finder to explore the contents of the ISO file.

If you want to unmount the ISO image, do the following:

    hdiutil unmount / DestinationFolder

  2. Replace the destination folder with the folder location you copied in step 5.

  3. For example, if the destination folder is / Volume / Example, the command would be:
