Abstract

A program that can be launched during a browsing session logs protocol calls and stores time-stamped copies of those calls to a call list file. Calls that result in errors returned from the remote server or proxy are flagged, and may optionally be retained, or automatically or manually deleted. The program also creates a map file so as to keep information needed to associate a protocol call to the file or files downloaded in response to the protocol call. Filtering and tagging of downloaded files can optionally be performed to assist in the manual or automatic determination of whether to include the downloaded file(s) in a session file. Entries in the session file may be annotated with text, audio, video or various combinations of these and other media. The session file can be communicated to one or more users remote temporally, geographically, or both. The session file provides protocol calls to a user's local browser thus replaying the recorded browsing session as edited or annotated.
