Abstract

See full text

In one embodiment, an access indicator set in a client computer contains information for gaining access to a sever computer in a computer network. The access indicator may be a cookie, while the server computer may be hosting a website on the Internet. The client computer may provide the contents of the access indicator to the server computer as a pass for gaining access to a particular section or entirety of the server computer. In one embodiment, setting of the access indicator is initiated by a computer program resident in the client computer. The non-web browser computer program may periodically initiate the setting of the access indicator to prevent it from expiring. In one embodiment, access privileges in a website are only provided to end-users who explicitly agree to receive advertisements.
