`1. A method related to controlling
`communication of a message from a
`user machine to a global computer
`network including the Internet,
`comprising:
`
`sending a message from a user machine
`to a proxy server disposed between said
`user machine and said global computer
`network, said message to said global
`computer network including at least a
`first data packet having a number of
`fields including a first field related to a
`first destination address;
`
`receiving said message by said proxy
`server;
`
`controlling said message by said proxy
`server including changing said first
`destination address to a source different
`from said first destination address,
`wherein said source provides at least
`one web page having web page
`information accessible over the Internet
`that is different from web page
`information accessible over the Internet
`using said first destination address; and
`
`Slemmer ʼ878 Application (Ex 1007)
`Col. 3, lines 6-9: “In controlling
`communications, the system 10,
`particularly the server 30, is interested
`only in TCP (Transmission Control
`Protocol) packets, which are used to
`carry essentially all web traffic.”
`Col. 3, lines 2-12: “With regard to
`communications from the user
`machines 20 to the Internet 40,
`messages are sent to the Internet 40 by
`the user machines 20 by means of
`encapsulated parcels of data identified
`as ‘datagrams or packets’. Each such
`packet must pass through the proxy
`server 30 to access the Internet 40…
`Each TCP packet contains the
`following fields or integers: source IP
`(Internet Protocol) address; source TCP
`port; destination IP address; and
`destination TCP port.”
`Col. 3, lines 19-21: “If a packet TCP
`port is identified as 80, that packet is
`intercepted by the transparent proxying
`software module and redirected to a
`different TCP port on the server 30.”
`Col. 3, line 22 to Col. 4, line 7: “A
`software control program running on
`the server 30 is in communication with
`that software port to which the packet
`is redirected. This software port
`responds to requests as if they were the
`web server on the Internet 40. This
`proxy server program or control
`program assumes control of the web
`request by fulfilling the actual request
`from the user machine 20 or
`implementing other predetermined
`steps. Such other predetermined steps

`
`Claim 1 of 6,226,677 (Ex 1001)
`
`providing returned information
`including said at least one web page to
`said user machine using said source.

`relate to providing information to the
`user machine 20 from one or more
`particular web pages of a web site
`different from the user machine 20
`requested site.”
`
`Col. 11, lines 11-13: “controlling said
`message by said proxy server including
`changing said first destination address
`to a source different from said first
`destination address”
`Col. 4, line 23 to Col. 5, line 8: “The
`user machine 20 is caused to receive a
`returned HTTP redirect message. This
`is a special command that directs the
`web browser of the user machine 20 to
`"jump to" or be provided with
`information from another web site
`location, without any display or other
`indication of this web site change to the
`particular user machine 20. For
`example, a user machine 20 receiving a
`request to its browser in the form of
`www.abc.com could be directed by the
`control program in the proxy server 30
`to access www.xyz.com as the web site
`address to be displayed or from which
`information is to be obtained.”
