The danger zone for food is between 4 degrees and 60 degrees. Any perishable food that has been in between those two temperatures for longer than four hours has a high risk of bacterial growth and should never be eaten. When thawing any food the safest practice is to do it the refrigerator to avoid that danger zone.
