摘要： Technology is described for local ad targeting. An engine executing on a client computing device may select ads based on rules that can be modified without modifying the engine. The engine can select from advertisements stored locally based on data discovered at the client computing device, such as by observing the user's actions, stored documents, state of the client computing device and/or its peripherals, etc. The technology can employ plug-ins to extend functionality provided by the engine. The technology can include a plug-in manager that manages plug-ins. The technology can also download and manage rules. Each rule can specify what actions to take, such as when an event occurs. When a component of the operating system observes an event, the engine (or a rule executor component associated with the engine) executes each related rule. The technology can thus select ads based on arbitrary events of the operating system, applications, or other components.

摘要翻译： 技术描述为本地广告定位。 在客户端计算设备上执行的引擎可以基于可以修改而不修改引擎的规则来选择广告。 引擎可以基于在客户端计算设备发现的数据本地存储的广告中进行选择，例如通过观察用户的动作，存储的文档，客户端计算设备和/或其外围设备的状态等。该技术可以使用插件 扩展引擎提供的功能。 该技术可以包括管理插件的插件管理器。 该技术还可以下载和管理规则。 每个规则可以指定要执行的操作，例如事件发生时。 当操作系统的组件观察事件时，引擎（或与引擎相关联的规则执行器组件）执行每个相关规则。 因此，该技术可以基于操作系统，应用程序或其他组件的任意事件来选择广告。

摘要： Technology for pre-ordering (e.g., pre-fetching content) at a shared computing premise is described. The technology can enable a user to locate and reserve an available seat at a shared computing premise (e.g., an iCafé). A service can transmit to the user a list of nearby iCafés or available seats that is ranked or ordered based on various criteria. The selected iCafé may pre-fetch content. The iCafé may also provide the pre-fetched content on removable media so that the user does not need to view all the pre-fetched content only at the iCafé. The iCafé may provide a search and/or document notification service and perform searches, download documents, and check for changes to specified documents even when the user is not logged on or using a computer at the iCafé. After the documents are retrieved and stored, the iCafé may send a notification to the user.

摘要： Described is a system and method in which the account settings for managing (e.g., sending and receiving) data are maintained in association with the managed data, such that the account settings and data remain unified yet are independent of any computing device. In one electronic mail application implementation, the mail message data and the account settings are maintained in a common store of a same storage volume that is independent of the device, such as on a removable memory card. When a user connects the volume such as by inserting the card, the device automatically reads the email account settings, which are then used to properly receive or send any corresponding messages. Because the account settings are maintained in the same store with any related content (e.g., message) data, the settings and related data thus travel with the user/card when moved to another device.

摘要： Systems and methods are disclosed that facilitate identifying messages generated on a mobile device while the device is offline as requiring encryption, storing the messages in a message outbox with a flag indicating that encryption is required, and identifying recipients of the flagged messages to generate a recipient list. The recipient list can be piggybacked on a server synchronization request when the mobile device enters a period of online activity, and a server can return public keys associated with identified recipients to permit an encryption component, such as a secure/multipurpose Internet mail extension protocol (S/MIME) encryption component, in the mobile device to encrypt the messages.

摘要： A cross-process layer is generally directed to exposing instant messenger (IM) presence information on a mobile device. An application program interface (API) is provided that allows clients to retrieve IM presence information for display regardless of the IM service provider providing the IM presence information. The IM service providers therefore interoperate with any application on the mobile device and enables any application to show presence for any IM contact.

摘要： An advertising framework registers context data sources and advertising display clients from a variety of resources on a local computer. The ad framework may then receive context data and display triggers from the registered context data sources. The context data and display triggers may be processed and an advertising request generated and sent to an external advertising source. Non-advertising content may also be supported. When a targeted advertisement is received in response, a display manager may send the ad to an appropriate display client. When the ad has been presented a the advertising framework will communicate to the advertising supplier who may apportion and credit advertising revenue to the participating parties.

摘要： Described is a system and method for filtering messages received by a message-handling program, that leverage the existing message-handling architecture of computer devices to trigger events and perform other actions instead of (or in addition to) displaying the messages to users. One or more rule clients, e.g., COM objects, register for processing messages. When an appropriate message is received, the message-handling mechanism passes the message to a rule client. Depending on how that rule client responds, the message-handling mechanism determines what to do with the message, e.g., discontinue the message. Messages that are not discontinued are passed to another rule client, if any, or displayed in the user interface, if not. Rule clients may be read only, or may have write access, to modify messages. Messages may be hidden from a user by a rule client, modified before being display to a user, or left intact.

摘要翻译： 描述了一种用于过滤由消息处理程序接收的消息的系统和方法，其利用计算机设备的现有消息处理架构来触发事件并执行其他动作，而不是（或除了）向用户显示消息之外。 一个或多个规则客户端，例如COM对象，注册用于处理消息。 当接收到适当的消息时，消息处理机制将消息传递给规则客户端。 根据该规则客户端的响应方式，消息处理机制决定了如何处理该消息，例如停止该消息。 未停止的消息将传递到另一个规则客户端（如果有）或显示在用户界面中（如果没有）。 规则客户端可能是只读的，或者可能具有写入权限来修改消息。 消息可以由规则客户端从用户隐藏，在被显示给用户之前被修改或保持不变。
