A system and method for creating and accessing an object in a computer system is disclosed. The computer system including an application and an operating system. The system and method comprises a plurality of application programming interfaces (APIs) calls in the operating system. The plurality of API calls being utilized to obtain and set state information related to the application. The system further comprises a record/playback application on the computer, the record/playback application being capable of generating and reading script based upon the API calls to record actions that represent the operations of the applications and to reply actions that represent operations of the application. A system and method in accordance with the present invention utilizes existing accessibility screen reader technologies in order to create automated script files to launch program events. This can be accomplished by capturing the actions that the user's mouse and keyboard events create during of launching of a program or application including, mouse clicks, commands, pull down menu selections, etc., by utilizing API calls to retrieve state information concerning the program application.

An intelligent battery charger is disclosed which tracks usage of the computer by the user and the charging and usage habits of the user. This tracking includes dates, times, and elapsed usage time, as well as dates, times, and elapsed charging time. Parameters regarding the specific battery being charged are also known by the intelligent battery charger. This information is utilized to develop a usage and charging profile for a particular battery in the device for which it is used. To execute a deep cycle, rather than require that the user wait to plug in a charger until the battery level has reached a certain low level, the charger itself controls the on and off operation of the charging system, based on the profiles

A system and method that validates the identity of an instant messaging session user is provided. An instant messaging session is established between two instant messaging applications running on two different computers connected through a computer network. After the instant messaging session has been established, one of the users requests identity authentication of the other user. The other user supplies the requested identity authentication data, such as a password. The identity authentication data is verified and, if the identity authentication data is successfully verified, a secure message is displayed.

Systems and methods for preventing the use of card skimmers on electronic card terminals are disclosed. Embodiments include a method that generally includes ejecting from a card slot in a rear faceplate an electronic card and determining the relative movement between a front faceplate and the card slot. Embodiments also include before receiving a second electronic card, changing the relative position of the card slot and the front faceplate. Embodiments may include moving the rear faceplate or moving the front faceplate. Further embodiments may include detecting an error during the changing of the relative position of the card slot and the front faceplate and, if an error is detected, moving the card slot to a lockdown position. Movements between the front faceplate and the card slot may be vertical, horizontal, radial, etc., and may be randomly generated.

Controlling access to a computerized device includes deriving a hash from two pieces of information, signing the hash to create a signed password and storing the password in the device. In response to an initial access attempt, the user is prompted to enter two input values. A local hash is then derived from the two input values and compared to a hash derived from the stored password. Upon detecting a match between the hashes, the user is granted access to the device, where the match indicates equivalence between the two pieces of information and the two input values. The input values may include information specific or personal to the user and information unique to the device. A public/private key pair may be used to sign and optionally encrypt and decrypt the stored password.
