摘要： Content management architecture for a portable wireless device. Caching and fetching techniques are provided to improve content handling for portable devices such as cellular telephones and portable computers. A search component automatically performs searches as a background process, and potentially desired content is received and cached by a content storing component to be available in the future when and if needed, mitigating latency associated with slow download speeds, refresh rates, and other system and/or network impediments. Content from background search results can be trickled into the device as part of the background process so as not to burden system resources for other processes. As part of memory management, aged and/or low priority or low interest content can be selectively removed or archived to increase available cache or memory space, as well as to maintain relevant content within the device. A presentation component facilitates presentation of the pre-stored content.

摘要： While interacting with a messaging interface, keywords or other search criteria are automatically identified and used to perform a search. Search results and sponsored links (or advertisements) are displayed to the user within the messaging interface. To alleviate privacy concerns, this process will not be performed unless the user has explicitly opted-in to the search feature. In another embodiment, the user can highlight keywords in an outbound or inbound message to trigger a search without leaving the messaging interface. In another embodiment, the user can input a search keyword or phrase to trigger a search without leaving the messaging interface.

摘要翻译： 在与消息接口交互时，自动识别关键字或其他搜索条件，并用于执行搜索。 搜索结果和赞助链接（或广告）将显示给消息传递界面中的用户。 为了减轻隐私问题，除非用户已明确选择加入搜索功能，否则不会执行此过程。 在另一个实施例中，用户可以突出出站或入站消息中的关键字来触发搜索而不离开消息接口。 在另一个实施例中，用户可以输入搜索关键词或短语来触发搜索而不离开消息接口。

摘要： The subject invention provides a unique system and method that facilitates propagating selected advertisements among users of interactive services. Interactive service users can be targeted for specific types of advertisements for particular products or services. When a user selects at least one advertisement for more detailed viewing, the advertisement can be distributed to or shared with one or more other users. These other users may be part of the original user's social network. Thus user-selected advertisements can be shared among users who are familiar with each other's current or future interests. In some cases, user-selected advertisements can replace system-selected advertisements. As a result, advertisers can benefit from increased exposure of and interest in their advertisements.

摘要： The present invention provides a unique system and method that facilitates incrementally updating spam filters in near real time or real time. Incremental updates can be generated in part by difference learning. Difference learning involves training a new spam filter based on new data and then looking for the differences between the new spam filter and the existing spam filter. Differences can be determined at least in part by comparing the absolute values of parameter changes (weight changes of a feature between the two filters). Other factors such as frequency of parameters can be employed as well. In addition, available updates with respect to particular features or messages can be looked up using one or more lookup tables or databases. When incremental and/or feature-specific updates are available, they can be downloaded such as by a client for example. Incremental updates can be automatically provided or can be provided by request according to client or server preferences.

摘要： The subject invention provides for an intelligent quarantining system and method that facilitates a more robust classification system in connection with spam prevention. The invention involves holding back some messages that appear to be questionable, suspicious, or untrustworthy from classification (as spam or good). In particular, the filter lacks information about these messages and thus classification is temporarily delayed. This provides more time for a filter update to arrive with a more accurate classification. The suspicious messages can be quarantined for a determined time period to allow more data to be collected regarding these messages. A number of factors can be employed to determine whether messages are more likely to be flagged for further analysis. User feedback by way of a feedback loop system can also be utilized to facilitate classification of the messages. After some time period, classification of the messages can be resumed.

摘要： The subject invention provides systems and methods that facilitate obfuscating a spam filtering system to hinder reverse engineering of the spam filters and/or to mitigate spammers from finding a message that consistently gets through the spam filters almost every time. The system includes a randomization component that randomizes a message score before the message is classified as spam or non-spam so as to obscure the functionality of the spam filter. Randomizing the message score can be accomplished in part by adding a random number or pseudo-random number to the message score before it is classified as spam or non-spam. The number added thereto can vary depending on at least one of several types of input such as time, user, message content, hash of message content, and hash of particularly important features of the message, for example. Alternatively, multiple spam filters can be deployed rather than a single best spam filter.

摘要翻译： 主题发明提供了系统和方法，其有助于混淆垃圾邮件过滤系统以阻止垃圾邮件过滤器的反向工程和/或减轻垃圾邮件发送者几乎每次都能始终获得通过垃圾邮件过滤器的消息。 该系统包括随机化组件，其在消息被分类为垃圾邮件或非垃圾邮件之前随机化消息得分，以掩盖垃圾邮件过滤器的功能。 随机化消息分数可以部分地通过在消息分数被分类为垃圾邮件或非垃圾邮件之前向消息得分添加随机数或伪随机数来完成。 附加的数量可以根据例如时间，用户，消息内容，消息内容的散列以及消息的特别重要的特征的散列中的至少一种输入而变化。 或者，可以部署多个垃圾邮件过滤器，而不是一个最好的垃圾邮件过滤器。

摘要： Architecture for detecting and removing obfuscating clutter from the subject and/or body of a message, e.g., e-mail, prior to filtering of the message, to identify junk messages commonly referred to as spam. The technique utilizes the powerful features built into an HTML rendering engine to strip the HTML instructions for all non-substantive aspects of the message. Pre-processing includes pre-rendering of the message into a final format, which final format is that which is displayed by the rendering engine to the user. The final format message is then converted to a text-only format to remove graphics, color, non-text decoration, and spacing that cannot be rendered as ASCII-style or Unicode-style characters. The result is essentially to reduce each message to its common denominator essentials so that the junk mail filter can view each message on an equal basis.

摘要： The subject invention provides for an intelligent quarantining system and method that facilitates detecting and preventing spam. In particular, the invention employs a machine learning filter specifically trained using origination features such as an IP address as well as destination feature such as a URL. Moreover, the system and method involve training a plurality of filters using specific feature data for each filter. The filters are trained independently each other, thus one feature may not unduly influence another feature in determining whether a message is spam. Because multiple filters are trained and available to scan messages either individually or in combination (at least two filters), the filtering or spam detection process can be generalized to new messages having slightly modified features (e.g., IP address). The invention also involves locating the appropriate IP addresses or URLs in a message as well as guiding filters to weigh origination or destination features more than text-based features.

摘要： In one or more embodiments, in the context of an instant messaging application, a conversation is analyzed and contextually or textually relevant keywords and/or phrases are identified. These keywords or phrases are then highlighted in a visually-identifiable manner for selection by an individual participating in the conversation. Once selected by an individual, a user interface is presented and exposes the individual or individuals in the conversation to various contextually- or textually-relevant material or functionality that pertains to the selected word or phrase. In one or more embodiments, an individual can also manually select a word or phrase to access the user interface that exposes contextually or textually-relevant material or functionality. In the various embodiments described below, at least some of this relevant material or functionality is presented to the user in the context of the instant messaging application and in a manner in which it can be consumed by the individual within the instant messaging application itself.
