Well the best solution is to download GIMP from the official website,
since other websites are not necessarily trusted and can sometimes be
actual malware: http://www.gimp.org/downloads/

Note that I don't say that all third-party builds are untrustable.
Some are well known and actually legit. But when you don't really know
what's out there, the safest solution is to download from the official
GIMP website. :-)

Have fun with GIMP!
