Be Careful What Widgets You Use

I was doing a bit of digging around on a Blogger issue then got sidetracked reading some of the other rather interesting information in the help files.  Be very, very careful about what widgets you use on your blog.    Some of those cute widgets might not be as cute as you think!  There are reports of malicious redirects via widgets as well as malware.   As with any third party script be sure you trust the source before adding a widget to your blog.  If you are using the Blogger platform for blogging take a few minutes to browse through the help forum.  Some of the threads are real eye openers!
