+      <p>Starting with the 4.0.0 release the source tarball contains a new test framework. Some of the test cases
+      contain hex-encoded data, for exampe see <a href=

+      "_top">gzip decompression test 10</a>. While none of the test cases contain viruses they may contain patterns
+      that viruses also contain, for example there is a <a href=

+      "_top">test case for the obsolete ie-exploits filter</a>.</p>
+      <p>The tests don't get executed automatically and if you feel safer you can remove the tests/cts directory before
+      building Privoxy ...</p>
