• If you specify the address for the profile storage in the task, then while it's execution the upgrading data will be read from this storage, and after execution will be sent to this store. Thus, upgrading will not depend on parameters of surfer environment.
• If the task does not use the profile storage,then upgrading will be stored, as before, by the surfer.
• For surfer the task performing with the profile storage will mean, that in calculating the credits for the execution, level of upgrade will be ignored (will be considered equal 100%).

Storage profiles are needed for webmaster to keep upgrading, by desire (surfer cookies for the certain task execution) in the place, independent on surfers. This can be useful to those for whom upgrading is critical, for example, when upgrading profile to stabilize statistics of LiveInternet or other counters.
