While we try to make sure we're not recommending virus-laden garbage it is still your responsibility to scan anything you download before you install it. Also, since these software programs are all open-source and community supported they will be subject to bugs and other unusual behaviour, and they won't always be able to match the features, flexibility and power of commercial solutions. Sadly, there's still no such thing as a free lunch.
