No, first rule is "Don't use proprietary software."
Down the line are rules such as these:
Don't use software that can run an arbitrary executable through
"clicking".
Don't use software that doesn't respect a strict set of user/system
permissions.

First and foremost, though:
Don't run anything you didn't compile yourself.
