[Fasterfox] Fasterfox - not a bug, more an annoyance

I like to say great extension for firefox - I have noticed a slight 
difference, however there is one little annoyance that I've found - It's not 
a bug

The problem I seem to have is that when using search engines (google mainly) 
I keep getting asked 'Do I want xxxxxx to send me a cookie' - before I even 
clicked on a link. (I use  'Permit Cookie' extension to give me better 
control over which cookies to accept & have 'ask every time' set in 
options). I guessing it's due to the 'enhanced prefetching' of fasterfox

You state on your webpage that it will prefetch .gif, .htm, .html, .jpeg, 
.jpg, .pdf, .png, .text, .txt, and .xml files.

Would it be possible that on the next version - we (the users) have the 
oppotunity on WHICH files to prefetch. Maybe you can add an option under 
'custom' that allows us to disable each type that we wouldn't like to 
prefetch - I can then disable 'txt' & (hopefully) I won't keep getting the 
cookie question popping up each time I use a search engine

Many thanks on a great extension - keep up the good work
