Can I trust downloading Python?

That's why I deactivate all of these by default. And why I *hate*
so-called "web designers" who *require* activation of such fancy flashy
nonsense gadgets.

PDF files are an exception since PDF was originally designed as a
"safe" subset of Postscript (postscript viruses had been demonstrated).
Now Adobe has jeopardized this by allowing embedding of Javascript in
PDF files (but that as well is deactivated by default for me).

Sincerely,
