RE: danger scripts
Scripts are put through testing before being accepted to the database.

If you download your scripts from the official site you should be confident that the scripts are safe.

RE: danger scripts
Yes, it is possible to make scripts that steal your password (or worse). The reason is that Plus! does not limit what the scripts can do in any way, basically they can much harm as an executable program (.exe).
However, scripts downloaded from the official script database are tested and approved before they are added to the site, so those scripts can be trusted.

Scripts are as powerful/dangerous as any real programs can be.
