Default Risks of 'Unknown Bitprint"?

Just wondering what anyone thinks about the risk of downloading a file with an Unknown Bitprint. I'm happy the file I'm choosing isn't one of the spammy/virus 'usual suspects' in terms of filesize, and anyway I'm running OsX so that's not a big deal. But I am worried about downloading a b-i-g app which later turns out to be a load of corrupt (and possibly HD corrupting) cack. Would anyone risk it?
Obviously someone has to be brave and rate an unknown file, but I'm small and frightened and don't want to be the first
