Abstract
A system for use in downloading a file from a server through a computer network to a client. In one embodiment, the system can include a subfile selector that has: (1) a subfile designator, associated with the client, that receives data designating only a portion of the file to be downloaded to the client and (2) a subfile requestor, associated with the subfile designator, that transmits a server request based on the data. The system can further include a subfile responder that has: (1) a subfile designation receiver, associated with the server, that receives the server request and (2) a subfile transmitter, associated with the subfile designation receiver, that initiates a download of only the portion, the computer network thereby relieved of having to communicate an entirety of the file.
