Actually most phones today are setup to only allow downloading from the Google Market. You have to disable this block in your phone before you can sideload your apps. What AT&T has done is prevented users from disabling this feature.
In your case since you are a technical challenged (as you put it, I would never call anybody that) you would not know how to disable this feature, until you have a need.

Lol. I'm not going to fake knowledge I don't have, so I declare my tech lame-ness.
I would prefer that a carrier not lock stuff, so people with tech skills can tinker, yet make things simple enough so that I don't get hung up. I also would prefer some kind of checking of apps before they go to the market I shop at. Without tech know-how, I'm basically relying on companies to screen. Yes, I can read warnings and (dis)approve, but I'm guessing that scammers are hiding whatever they're really trying to do.
