McAfee has released an interesting report on how safe search engines are:

Gotta love this...
On the five most popular sites -- Google, Yahoo, MSN, AOL and Ask -- 72 percent 
of results for searches such as "free screensavers," "digital music," "popular 
software" and "singers" were risky.
 
Further reading of the document shows that picking the top results of a search 
aren't always safe either.
