- Others who have written about this problem have made the point that if your 
application uses a permanent cookie to identify you, and if you view a page on 
another site that "happens" to have links to your site, links you might not 
even see, WebAccelerator will execute those links.
- They have also written that operations that change data "should" use "post" 
rather than get.
- Unfortunately, for the many sites that use fusebox's FormURL2Attributes tag, 
it doesn't matter if you intended the data to be posted from a form. If a link 
contains the necessary information, the fusebox application will blithely 
accept the input as if it came from a form.
- So, if you're logged in (either through current action in another window or 
by the magic of a cookie that remains on your browser to keep you from having 
to log in), then browsing other sites with WebAccelerator can be hazardous to 
your application; especially if you've ticked off anyone who has a general idea 
of how your application works. =Marty=
