Abstract: A method and computer system for providing access to computer resources on a computer system and includes generating a token containing encrypted user information including credit, authorization, and authentication information. A request is initiated to open an encrypted computer resource stored on the computer system, and execution of a remote application manager component on the computer system is also initiated. The remote application manager component decrypts the token and authenticates a user using authentication information stored in the token. Whether the user is authorized and has sufficient credit are then verified. When the user is approved, the requested computer resource is decrypted and opened. Use of the computer resource is monitored to determine whether the user has sufficient credit to continue using the computer resource. A notification is provided when the monitored usage of the opened computer resource has exceeded the credit.

Abstract: A display method for time-ordered dynamic lists of data including a window for a computer display having a present portion and a past portion. The present portion contains only current data. Any and all historic data is contained in the past portion. The past portion is of a specified length but may be variable and can be reviewed by the user as desired. Whenever the present portion and the past portion of the window do not represent a continuous list of data from the current data to the historic data, a visible indicator is provided to notify the user of this discontinuity.
