If anyone can run any type of program on the super computer, what's stopping that someone from doing something malicious with this power...?

That's a good point, I mean from what I gather they have reputation systems that form incentives to use it positively. I also see that it inherits a lot of Ethereum's security measures and I guess any computations done through Golem are performed on "isolated environments" and the company screens what is done quite a bit.
Those isolated environments have little access to outside networks according to the white paper:

Ah, interesting. I feel like the reputation system is always a good measure.
