As u all know that all the broadband providers in India offer Unlimited Browsing, and a limit of 400 mb approx to download, but when we surf web it downloads its pages as temporary internet files and cookies and all these are also included in the download limit.

Is there any way to stop sites to download anything to the system, not even as the temporary internet browsing.

If their is any software then please provide the link to download it, coz i think that if we can stop sites to download anything then we can use our full limit of 400 mb and enjoy unlimited browsing.

Thank u

i cudnt understand u , what exactly do u want ???
if webpages will be opened , bandwidth will defintely be consumed . there is no way we can view web pages without affecting our data limit.

You can install ad-blocking softwares to save some bandwidth! Also, use antiviruses for any malware, etc..

That is not possible piyush, coz whenever u open a site, the pages and the reqd. content are downloaded to the cache, from where its displayed on your browser. Altho you can stop some of the content like ads, flash files, images,etc. from being automatically downloaded to your pc, but its not foolproof.

IMHO, the best way to stop sites from downloading would be to not surf at all.*img103.exs.cx/img103/6541/biggrin.gif

If you are using Firefox, you can use extensions like adblock plus which prevents ads being downloaded and more importantly, Flashblock to prevent flash animations being downloaded. In case of IE7 also, I think there are similar extensions but I have not tried.

hmmmmm...u can minimize those files by blocking popups,ads ,flash,and images..but theres no way u can make it zero...afterall even a text based webpage will consume some KBs..
