Abstract

The present invention relates generally to unobtrusive methods and systems for collecting information transmitted over a network utilizing a data collection system residing between an originator system and a responding system. In one embodiment the Originator System can be a web browser and the Responding System can be a web server. In another embodiment the Originator System can be a local computer and the Responding System can be another computer on the network. According to embodiments described herein, the system and method may be utilized to manage and track messages sent over a network and without the use of cookies or their equivalents.

Claims20

Dependent claims

A system for obtaining and storing information transmitted over a network, wherein such system comprises:

a. A first network location connected to the network that is capable of transmitting information to a second network location on the network;
b. An intermediary network location that is logically situated between the first and second network location, said intermediary location being capable of:
i. Receiving a transmission from the first network location;
ii Sending a transmission to the second network location where said transmission is based on the content of the transmission received from the first network location;
iii. Receiving a transmission from the second network location;
iv. Sending a transmission to the first network location based on the content of the transmission received from the second network location;
c. wherein the intermediary network location is capable of storing the transmissions received from both the first and second network locations into a logical memory location.
