First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method for transferring content in a network, comprising:
- detecting a background intelligent transfer service executing in an operating system on a first computing device; and
binding a proxy name from a registry to a job associated with the background intelligent transfer service, the background intelligent transfer service operating to transfer a content between the first computing device and other computing devices.

Abstract
The present invention allows for the downloading of content regardless of a computing device'"'"'s configuration. Computer software is executed on the computing device to accommodate multiple download protocols and techniques. The present invention also works through problems associated with proxies, firewalls, and internet accelerators to download content from the internet.

9. A computer-implemented method for transferring content in a network, comprising:
-
detecting an internet accelerator operating on a first computing device;
operating a background intelligent transfer service to transfer a content between a first computing device and other computing devices; and
upon a failure of the background intelligent transfer service during the transfer of the content, selecting an application program interface and an application-level protocol to transfer the content between the first computing device and the other computing devices. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A computer-implemented method for managing downloads from the internet, comprising:
-
detecting a dial-up internet accelerator operating on a computing device;
executing an HTTP GET request, further comprising determining if the HTTP GET request is successful; and
if the HTTP GET request is unsuccessful, executing an application program interface and an application-level protocol to download a content from the internet, the execution of the application program interface and the application-level protocol bypass using a background intelligent transfer service. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
