`REMARKS
`
`Applicants have carefully studied the outstanding Office

`of the application are respectfully requested.
`
`The undersigned representative reminds the Examiner that
`
`a Preliminary Response was filed on June 22, 2005. Those arguments have
`
`not been considered and have been incorporated herein.
`
`Applicants have canceled claims 29, 60 and 76, and have
`
`amended claims 1 - 7, 16, 28, 20, 47, 61, 68, 69 and 75 to more properly
`
`claim the present invention. No new matter has been introduced. Claims 1
`
`- 7, 16 - 20, 28, 30 - 34, 43, 46 - 51, 58, 59, 61 and 63 - 75 are
`
`presented for examination.
`
`In Paragraph 1 of the Office Action, the Examiner has
`
`objected to the specification because an informality. Applicants have
`
`amended the specification accordingly.
`
`In Paragraphs 2 and 3 of the Office Action, the Examiner
`
`has rejected claims 1 - 7, 16 - 20, 28 - 34, 43, 46 - 51, 58 - 61 and 63
`
`- 76 on the ground of non-statutory obviousness-type double patenting as
`
`being unpatentable over claims 1 - 35 of U.S. Patent No. 7,058,822.
`
`Although the Examiner also listed 62 under this rejection, that claim was
`
`previously canceled. Applicants are accordingly filing a terminal disclaimer
`
`concurrent with this response.
`
`In Paragraphs 4 and 5 of the Office Action, the Examiner
`
`has rejected claims 1, 2, 4 - 7, 16, 17, 19, 20, 28, 30 - 34, 46 - 51, 59,

`
`matter. Although the Examiner also listed claims 8, 52 - 57 and 62 under
`
`this rejection,
`
`those claims were previously canceled.
`
`Accordingly,
`
`applicants have amended all of the pending claims in view of controlling
`
`case law, including Ex Parte Bo Li, Appeal No. 2008-1213 (BPAI Nov. 6,
`
`2008).
`
`In Paragraphs 6 and 7 of the Office Action, the Examiner

`
`this rejection, that claim was previously canceled. Applicants have canceled
`
`claims 29, 60 and 76 without acquiescence to the Examiner's reasons for
`
`rejection, and respectfully submit that rejection of these claims is thus
`
`rendered moot. Therefore only claims 1 - 7, 16 - 20, 28, 30 - 34, 43, 46

`
`Golan describes a security monitor that creates a sandbox
`
`around an application, such as a web browser, and controls the behavior of
`
`software components, such as ActiveX controls, that are operative in
`
`conjunction with the application. Specifically, Golan re-directs API calls of
`
`the application and the software components to corresponding monitored API
`
`functions (Golan/ FIGS. 10 and 14). Golan also re-directs non-API calls of
`
`the software components, in order to further protect against indirect calls to
`
`API functions (Golan/ FIGS. 11 and 15). Re-direction of API and non-API
`
`calls is performed by modifying function addresses within function import
`
`tables (Golan/ FIG. 4).
`
`In distinction with the claimed invention, Golan does not
`
`describe the packaging of protection code.
`
`Instead, Golan discusses a
`
`situation whereby a security monitor
`
`is already resident on a client
`
`computer, as illustrated in FIGS. 2, 5 and 9 of Golan, without concerning
`
`itself as to how the security monitor was installed. In fact, prima facie the
`
`methodology of the claimed invention, of packaging mobile protection code
`
`with downloadable information, seems wasteful and counter-intuitive, since
`
`such protection code is typically re-transmitted to the client computer many
`
`times - in particular, each time a downloadable with executable code is
`
`downloaded. However, the advantage of this methodology is control over
`
`the ability to customize the mobile protection code and to update it as
`
`necessary, thus obviating the need for a user to be responsible for ensuring
`
`that his security code be appropriate to his computer and up to date.

`
`describe causing mobile protection code, which corresponds to Golan's
