Abstract

Methods of filling a request for content from a communications system, e.g., the internet, comprises receiving a client request for content, optionally removing from the client request information identifying the client to produce an anonymous request, optionally adding to the anonymous request information identifying the proxy system to produce a proxy request, sending the proxy request, receiving response content, optionally removing undesired material from the response content, and transmitting the response content to the client, as well as proxy systems for carrying out such methods. The proxy system and methods provide the capability to protect a client's communications system, e.g., computer, from being infiltrated by data-mining or spy software (spyware), malicious software (malware) or advertisement software, including pop-up advertisements (adware). The invention also makes it possible to avoid the disclosure of the client's personal information and web browsing activity.
