Of course as Pd is quite powerful and often installed setuid root, so
indeed it can be dangerous to try pd files from unknown sources. For
those who trust websites more than email, I also put that file to:
http:/footils.org/pkg/joe.pd.gz and it should have a checksum of: 

$ md5sum joe.pd.gz 
f073ee72f28bd445ac4fbf405d097b52  joe.pd.gz

(Note: some browser like to unpack .gz on the fly.)

Ciao
