Depends on the site I suppose. I have a number of them I download from also, and I have never had a problem. You get one that wants you to download a program, you have a problem though.

most of these funny sites, such as metacafe and youtube, are loaded with spywares and adwares, which will eventually slow down your computer system.
it's best not to download to save these video clips; just download to run these files and delete them afterwards, so that will also save a considerable amount of space in your hard disk drive.
stay happy, cheers!

That`s the risk `you` take. Why download when you can always return to the same site - or if you want to show your mates, e-mail them the URL :-)
