Parasitic computing
Parasitic computing is a computing technology where a remote computer tricks a target computer into performing computations of a complex nature under disguise of a standard communications session. For example, this can occur as follows: when a request is sent to a web server for a web page, the communication programs in the requesting machine split it into information packets before sending it across the Internet.
