    Abstract: The present invention is a method, system and article of manufacture that provides near simultaneous delivery of information over a packet routed network architecture in an inexpensive, fast, global, bi-directional communication medium, while having means to verify receipt of a transmission. The present invention utilizes a local mainframe distributing encrypted client submissions over a network such as the internet to a number of customers having a receiver. The present invention includes delivering a relatively small decryption key over the same network so that a customer is able to decrypt the previously received encrypted client submission and display the decrypted version simultaneously relative to the other customers.
