The dangers are twofold.
1) Using WinXP is dangerous (if you don't trust Bill Gates)
2) Using PGP 6.5.8ckt08 is dangerous (if you don't trust Imad)
Otherwise you should be fine :-)

PGP 6.5.8ckt is open source. If you don't trust it or Imad,
then review the source code.

3) compile and check the ckt source yourself with MS Visual C++ and
trust that.
Problem remains the same not on welfare boy. Ultimately you have to
trust someone and it will not be you.
