Is this a joke? Why do websites I havent yet visited need to store anything on my computer?

Wtf? That's messed up... if a website I haven't even visited tries to store information on my computer, my computer should... automatically hack them, and fuck their website up!


I have it so only www.Zelaron.com can store a meg on my computer, no other websites, that's fucking nuts...

DIalup or not why does a website need access to your harddrive when you have never even viewed it?

Well, "technically" its so they can store the TIF's and let the page load up faster.... but I agree, they shouldnt have to have access to the hard drive.

No . . we should allow them full access to our PC's . . While we are surfing/playing games/watching "movies" they should be able to take over our computers and do whatever they want. AT ALL TIMES!
