safe places to download free, safe, legitimate fonts would be
dafont.com
and
blambot.com (they internally create their own commercial and non commercial fonts that are hosted on their site.)
among other sites.
not all "free" font sites are either legitimate in their content or the safety of the hosting sites. When it doubt check with mywot.com or whois.net on the registration or ownership of the domains. Copyright laws differ from country to country, for instance In the United States providing commercial fonts to non purchasers is subject to the same legal ramifications as pirating commercial software.
