I am wondering if anyone has read the article:
www.yahoo.com/headlines/961127/entertainment/stories/online_livewire_1.html

They are talking about both NetJet and Blaze. Here is a quote from
that article:

"When someone is reading a Web page, the preloaded browsing feature
in both programs scans the page for hot links to related pages, then
downloads those pages to cache memory so they'll load faster if the
user decides to view them."

Now, if this becomes an enhanced feature for web-browsers, then
I suspect that rogue-robots will not be the worst of our problems ...
Web-users will.
