Re: Determine RAM using Web Application...

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

or just use ActiveX controls

using this .NET crap means that web development is LESS POWERFUL

MS should stop trying to sell us on a new version of everything and
fix their holes

sockets from the server that gathers for you or WMI if you have the correct
permissions.

I need to know if there is a way to determine the amount of RAM that a
person has on their workstation from a web application. We are using
BrowserHawk to mine HTTP information but I also need to know amount of RAM.
Is this possible?

Thanks in advance.
