1. Method for display of context-relevant supplemental information to complement Internet contents that have been called up, wherein the display of the context-relevant supplemental information is implemented in browser-independent manner, in that the Internet contents selected by the user by means of a request, by means of a browser-independent advisory software, are evaluated, preferably using the called-up URL, with regard to their relevance relative to the supplemental information, and then, as a function of the result of this evaluation, the called-up Internet contents are displayed, if applicable in conjunction with the supplemental information automatically procured from a database, preferably a central database, by means of the advisory software, wherein the display of this supplemental information takes place completely uncoupled from the browser, wherein the advisory software comprises a proxy server, and wherein the display of said supplemental information takes place as a function of the result of the evaluation of the requests entered by the user, by means of reconciliation of the data of the request with a locally and/or centrally stored auto-configuration file that contains a set of rules on the basis of which, preferably by means of analysis of the URLs, it is decided whether the request will be passed by way of the proxy server, wherein in the event of rerouting by way of the proxy server, the data procured within the scope of the request are further evaluated, if necessary, and the supplemental information is procured and displayed, wherein the request triggered by the user differs in no way, from the point of view of the server being called up, in each instance, from a conventional request, in other words without the evaluation of the network packets procured within the scope of the request, on the network level.
