Abstract: A computer can be configured to provide seamless access to a proxy server by, upon connection to a computer network, determining whether a proxy server using authentication is connected to the computer network, and then prompting a user of the computer to enter authentication information for that proxy server. This authentication information for the proxy server then can be stored in a manner accessible by applications on the computer to use the authentication information to connection with requests by the applications to access the second computer network. For example, the operating system can store the authentication information. It also can include a module that processes all requests from applications that access the proxy server, and then includes in such requests the stored authentication information.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a client device 110 may handle receiving pushed resources 452 from a server 120 at the client stack 114. The client stack 114 may send an initial navigation request 402 to a server 120 to initiate a navigation of the server. The client stack 114 may receive a pushed resource 452 from the server 120 processing the initial navigation request 402. The client stack 114 may match the pushed resource 452 to the initial navigation request 402.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject matter described herein relate to providing adaptive system recovery for computer systems. This may include receiving restoration information from a first computer system wherein the restoration information defines each storage component associated with the first computer system and the restoration information includes a storage component status, a storage component signature, a storage component type, and a storage component size. The restoration information may be used to match each of the storage components of the first computer system to a storage component of the second computer system based:at least on the restoration information and size of the storage component of the second computer system. Matching may include matching a storage component signature from the restoration information to a storage component signature of a storage component associated with the second computer system. Other aspects are described in the detailed-description.
