When downloading virtual machines they're usually packaged in an OVA file (Open Virtual Appliance). An OVA file is actually just a single file archive with an OVF package inside.
An OVF package contains the metadata decribing the virtual machine (usually a .ovf file) and the virtual disks. The OVF standard doesn't specify a disk image format.
