Abstract: A system for providing credit card sub-accounts with varying credit limits is useful to consolidate many accounts into one account. The present invention allows a user to add others to an existing account with the safety of setting credit limits for each sub-account to prevent sub-account holders from abusing the user's account features, funds, credit limits, and the like. Credit limits for sub-accounts can be configured by an exact amount, a percentage of the total credit limit, a percentage of the credit available, or a combination of these methods, and can also be per transaction, type of establishment where transaction takes place, or types of products or services attempting to be purchased.

Abstract: Methods, computer program products and systems for updating a dictionary on a computer are provided including identifying a set of words included with an application program being installed on the computer and identifying one or more installed dictionaries within the computer. The dictionaries that are identified, typically by searching the computer for installed dictionaries, may then be updated by adding one or more words of the set to at least one of the installed dictionaries. Optionally, one or more installed dictionaries may be identified by the user responding to a query asking the user to identify dictionaries or applications that contain dictionaries installed on the computer. An application programming interface may add the words to the dictionaries by associating the installed dictionaries with one or more installed application programs and identifying an API that is specific for the application and using the API to update the dictionaries.

Abstract: A method, system, and program for security screening of electronic devices by device identifier are provided. A security scanning system detects an identifier from an electronic device. The identifier may be a radio frequency identifier or other type of identifier which is preferably detectable by the security scanning system regardless of the operating status of the electronic device. The security scanning system queries a database with the identifier for information about the electronic device. Responsive to receiving the information about the electronic device from the central database, at least one real-time scanned characteristic of the electronic device is compared with this information. The information includes characteristics of the components of the electronic device and an x-ray overlay of the electronic device. If the real-time scanned characteristics and the information match, then electronic device is designated as secure.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for delivering personalized content from a content provider system to a satellite communication receiver user. The user selects content from the content provider system and specifies Internet or satellite delivery. If the user specifies Internet delivery, then the content provider system transmits the selected content to the user via the Internet. However, if the user specifies satellite delivery, then the content provider system acquires the user's satellite communication receiver ID code from the user. The content provider system then transfers the selected content and the user's ID code to a satellite transmitter of a satellite radio provider system. The satellite transmitter transmits the selected content and ID code via a satellite to the user's satellite communication receiver. If the ID code received by the user's satellite communication receiver matches the ID code of this satellite communication receiver, then the satellite communication receiver stores, and allows to the user to access, the selected content.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method is provided for use of a confirmation object by a reviewing computer to determine the accuracy of statements in a received document. The reviewing computer receives a document containing a statement and a confirmation object associated with the statement. The confirmation object includes a hyperlink to a substantiation object residing on a web page on a server computer. The reviewing computer reads the statement. The reviewing computer actuates the confirmation object, thereby transmitting a request to the server computer that the web page containing the substantiation object be served to the reviewing computer. The reviewing computer receives the web page containing the substantiation object from the server computer, reads the substantiation object, and compares the statement with the substantiation object in order to ascertain their degree of agreement. A substantiation authority system including a server computer is also provided for substantiating statements in a document.

Abstract: A new communicating object class is created: “The electronic excuse object”. This is an object class that provides for the automatic distribution via a communications network of a certification by an accepted authority of the existence of events justifying a responsive action or inaction by an entity, e.g. a person subjected to the effects of such events. A system for the certification of the existence of events enabling responsive actions that comprise at least one object of an object class including the identity of the entity authorized to make the certification, the identity of the entity enabled to take the responsive actions and a certification by the authorized entity of the existence of the events and a communication network process through which this object may be accessed so as to provide the certification to a designated recipient. The object contains an appropriate programming process for sending an electronic communication, such as an e-mail or Web document, to the designated recipients.
