Let's say I download a PDF with Tor. I get the warning that I might download it outside Tor.

What is the liklihood of that actually happening?  Are there some dangerous file types that one should not download.

Please note that I am talking about the downloading itself. I'm not talking about downloaded files containing an image which makes a request to the server so that the user's real IP is exposed.

Thanks!
