LOL, running fdisk? (MS fdisk is a cruel MS-DOS based partition program)

I do know there's hole in IE (at least an older version), where a webpage
could acces your disk. Someone wrote a page that would kill your win.com
(still the program that bootstraps MS Windows), and put a "Please upgrade
your system to Linux" message at boot time. Talking about watchdogs ;-)

Anyways, sounds a bit like a bad idea, but on the other hand... if you run
your system sole as a VCR Deluxe, you'll probably like it.
