It is safe, that warning is mostly just making sure that you know you are running a program, so that people can't put malicious programs behind deceptive links and run them without you realizing whats going on.

Let's see - A forum with hundreds of thousands of posts and tens of thousands of topics over 4+ years without any spam and plenty of developer activity. Good luck in Salem.

hey this is a good thing - a healthy bit of paranoia will take you a long way in Salem.
The default client should be signed with an actual payed-for key, and not give any scary messages.
As the custom client coders don't want to pay for a key like that, those are not signed and you may get the pop-up that they come from an untrusted source. You'll have to trust us or use the default client. Both custom clients are open source, too, so you can always dig through the source code to check everything out :lol:
I have neither the crayons nor the time to explain it to you.
