Asks if I want to let user "dzwow7p66n8b3.doudfront.net" store information on my computer. Asks this repeatedly when deploying troops and assigning movement to troops. Asks twice when I want to watch the turn.
My question is: 1. Is this malware/or some kind of hack? 2. Is this a legitimate part of the gameware? 3. If not, how do I best get rid of it?
Thanks for your help.

It's probably not malware. It's likely WarLight trying to store data locally. Check if you've enabled "Hard Disk Storage" in Settings.
Have you ever played other Flash-based games that store a lot of data? Like Age of Feudalism, for example?
I've noticed that it occurs in larger games which have a lot more to store- looks like WL reaches some sort of limit after which it needs to store data on your computer.
I'd wait on an official statement from Fizzer, of course, but I clicked "Accept" and it hasn't caused any discernable changes in my computer and neither have I been able to detect any malware despite scanning it quite thoroughly each day (I have some relatively sensitive, albeit encrypted, files on this machine).
