I also have a problem with this behavior.

Almost daily I get work related links from my colleges and I've noticed that it
takes a very long time before I receive the message with the link because they
are being prefetched. I can see the fetch process in the notification area, if
I stop the prefetch request manually I receive the message right away.
If the page is password protected it takes until the request times out, which
is a very long time.

I think it's a really bad idea to load the URL behind my back like that, if I
want or need to load the URLs I'll click on them.
