*no* they cannot.
The worst this will automatically do is set the widget in the dashboard bar.
It will not autoexecute the widget. That's not to say this doesn't make it
MUCH easier to cause problems, but it's not that magical.
In fact, if you turn off that idiotic "Open Safe Files" option in Safari,
this isn't a real problem at all.
Maybe if we all file security bugs about the lunacy of the "safe" file...
