Abstract: A system, method and computer program product are provided. After identifying a computer readable item, at least one opinion relating to the trustworthiness of the identified computer readable item is received, utilizing a network. Access to the computer readable item is then blocked or allowed, based on at least one opinion.

Abstract: Mobile devices are networked to servers using connections. The connections are monitored to select one or more connections as the active connection. Information from applications is aggregated and transmitted across the active connection in order to network the mobile devices to the servers.

Abstract: Communicating over a network includes establishing a communication path between a mobile-device in a first communication area and a server through a home-agent, and maintaining the communication path through the home agent when the mobile-device moves to a second-communication-area.

Abstract: Maintaining a reliable link includes altering a record of information transmitted across a network from a mobile unit to a destination based on an acknowledgment by the destination of receipt of the transmitted information and transmitting information from the mobile unit to the destination based on the record after the mobile unit establishes a new interface connection to the destination.

Abstract: Processing Internet Protocol security (IPsec) traffic includes determining at a first location if a classification parameter is available for the IPsec traffic that indicates a route for the IPsec traffic and forwarding the IPsec traffic based on the classification parameter. If a classification parameter is not available, processing IPsec traffic includes decrypting the IPsec traffic at a second location if the IPsec traffic is encrypted and determining the classification parameter for the IPsec traffic at the second location.

Abstract: Web server operations are off loaded to a network interface device, such as a network interface card. The device includes a physical interface to interconnect a network and a web server, and a storage mechanism for web content provided by the web server. The device is capable of independent provision of web content, such as frequently requested content of web pages, thus reducing load on the web server and its storage mechanism. Additional new elements and operations for a network interface device, and a web server system in which it operates, are also described.

Abstract: Providing web services using an interface includes hosting content of a web page at a first mechanism that is capable of responding to a client request, storing at least some of the content at a second mechanism that is capable of independently responding to a client request and that is accessible by the first mechanism, and providing at least some of the content stored at the second mechanism to a client in response to a request for content sent to the first mechanism by the client.

Abstract: Framing and processing messages includes preparing information included in a stream of information that requires reliable transmission from a source to a destination for transmission across a network link, separately preparing other information included in the stream that does not require reliable transmission to the destination for transmission across the network link, and preparing the stream for transmission across the network link.

Abstract: A collar for use with a pet containment system is provided. The collar includes an inner collar portion having at least one hole passing therethrough and a radio unit attached to the inner collar portion proximate to the hole. The radio unit includes at least one probe protruding therefrom which passes through the hole. The collar also includes an outer cover portion having two ends, one of which is fixedly attached to the inner collar portion on one side of the hole and the other of which defines a free end. The collar further includes a detachable fastening system detachably attaching the free end of the outer cover portion to the inner collar portion on the side of the hole opposite to the side to which the outer cover portion is fixedly attached such that the outer cover portion covers the radio unit, while providing quick and easy access thereto.
