Abstract

See full text

The method of the invention controls a computer to automatically enter user registration data, upon occurrence of a dialogue box. The computer includes a database which stores instances of data defining characteristics of windows that enable entry of user data so as to enable further execution of the program. The method initially monitors programs that execute on the computer and signals an occurrence of at least one of a set of events, wherein one of the set of events is the creation of a newly activated window. In response to a signalling of the event, the method determines if the event signalled is an activation of window (i.e. a dialogue box) and if yes, finds the newly activated dialogue box's identifier. The method then accesses descriptive data regarding the newly activated dialogue box and determines if it matches an instance of dialogue box data in the database. If yes, the method accesses user identification data from a secure storage area and, under control of data from the instance of the dialogue box data, enters the user identification data into the newly activated dialogue box to allow further execution of the program.
