I think you can best tell by:

Hope I could help ya

I agree with the first 2 from Aimshock as this is what I would do in your situation.

Looking at the comments to see if at least 10+ people have said "Works fine" or something similar which involves saying something good about the user's upload. BUT if users are saying "bad" or "virus, don't download", then obviously DO NOT download it whatever you do.

Usually, the Supporters on NulledBB can be trusted, as well as if Staff upload the plugins too.

But to always be sure; check how many downloads the plugin has, check the comment, and possibly run it through VirusTotal.com (although I've never used this website before, I'm sure it's safe! Smile)
