you're going to have to clarify what you're talking about at step 2, there are 
no hyperlinks in HardwareGrowler or its documentation.

The link is amongst the options when launching the application (or an updated 
version) for the first time. Standard Apple-style dialogue that appears in such 
circumstances (if an application is unsigned?). 

You either click the button to the application (if you trust where you 
downloaded it from etc.), or click a button to view the web page. 

In the HardwareGrowler case, that option opened http://growl.cachefly.net/

Key words: Launch Services

Second screen shot at http://notobvious.info/?tag=lsquarantine shows the type 
of dialogue. Button:

ah, ok, the bug is incorrectly reported by OP. 

The issue is not with HardwareGrowler specifically, it is with 404 handling on 
growl.cachefly.net, it should redirect to http://growl.info.

growl.cachefly.net is not an outdated link, the url displayed in the dialog by 
the OS is in fact correct. you downloaded the archive from growl.cachefly.net.

growl.cachefly.net is our CDN for growl downloads, as such Safari is going to 
tag the download with that domain.  We don't have control over the 404 behavior 
on cachefly and as a result we can't fix this issue.

Who should I report the issue to? CacheFly or WebKit developers?

No one. Please don't report a bug to cachefly. We get a free account with them 
that would cost hundreds of thousands a year. We're not going to ask them to 
change the way their entire infrastructure works for a small thing like this.
