General questions about application install

Is the market app the only was to install applications? The reason I ask is because I went to Android Market and was reference to BooRah but I could not find it within the market application.

Also, is there a way to clear out the search data from the market app?

You can download an app installer (there are a few of them in the market, I'm using "eoeAppInstaller") which will allow you do download and install .apk files from the web that are not in the market. You will need to go into your application settings and check the "unknown sources" box before it will allow you to install them, however.

As for clearing the search history in market, I am not honestly sure.
