I am mostly just cautious because I know that there are malicious websites. I have no idea how they work, or exactly what they can do. But it seems to me that the lure of free stuff would be a good way to get people to come to your nasty site. SOOO - knowing that I am fairly na�ve about what is or isn't a good idea to download, I mostly don't if it's a site I'm not familiar with. So I doubt there is anything in particular you need to know that you don't already! And if you've had good luck doing it, then I'll think about giving some of them a try.

I make sure to virus-scan them first. My thinking has been that the worst thing that can happen is that I get a crummy font. If there are dangers in doing this that I'm not aware of, I'd like to hear about them.
