Because in a 32 bit environment it iwll ask you once and malware might look like what you want to install and wreak havoc. Now if you read each prompt you will notice that if you were downloading malware and were about to install it you can see it change from something like liveinstaller.exe to scatalerts.exe in the third window. Its annoying, but do look at it each time so you can protect your system.
At first, I was annoyed with it, but its useful when you get used to it.
OSX will tell you straight up that the file is not what it says it is. I'm pretty dammed sure there's no way for a file to auto run.
