Some of the code questions recently have be relating to accessing files on the uses computer and sending or receiving information from the net.
Is it possible that code written in a widget can do harm to your computer or be sending information from your computer via the net ?
If yes, do widgets need to have some form of security that prevent internet access unless allowed by the user, because giving xwidget access to the net in your firewall settings allows all widgets to access the net and do what ever they want.
If code in widgets can create or delete files on the users computer what prevents them from harming your computer when you first start a widget, virus scanners would not detect this script as a risk.
Are any of my concerns valid
