Original post by Medulla_Oblongata what captn said [razz] edit: nevermind what I said above.. It looks like that site wants to install a protocol. I suppose it's safe (at least AnandTech is quite know... I think). But don't except it though, you can never be safe enough. If you think that it's BS that the site needs a protocol installed then screw them!!

Installed or launched? Why does the image "image004.jpg" (An ad) needs to run an application? WTF?

if you ask me, they can put that "cid protocol" somewhere where the sun doesn't shine. ever.

jpgs are just fine over http

cid stands for Content-ID and the cid: notation is used in MIME-based e-mails. MIME makes it possible to embed arbitrary data (like inline images) in e-mails. cid isn't a protocol and the page is probably just a (badly) converted e-mail.

This clears things up.
