Abstract: A system and method for monitoring secure digital data on a network are provided. An exemplary network monitoring system may include a network device in communication with a user and a network. Further, a server may be in communication with the network. A browser and monitoring program may be stored on the network device, and the network device may receive secure digital data from the network. The browser may convert the secure digital data or a portion thereof into source data, and the monitoring program may transfer the source data or a portion thereof to the server. In an exemplary embodiment, the monitoring program may include a service component and an interface program.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for allowing the collection of information regarding visits to the pages of a data network such as the Internet, and the number of separate images viewed is described. The described method overcomes various prior art limitations including providing for improved accuracy in reporting the number of times a banner image, such as an advertisement, is viewed; providing improved methods and apparatuses for efficiently identifying unique banner images viewed; providing an improved method and apparatus for configuring a network user's computer so that interference from the data collection process with the normal operation of the computer is minimized; providing an improved method and apparatus for efficiently calculating a checksum to allow unique identification of a banner image viewed by a network user; and providing an improved method and apparatus for determining whether the network user used the browser BACK button to view a page and, if so, to count the banner images viewed.
