(57) Abstract :
A Content Request System (CRS) (300) is operated to request the downloading of content from a Content Server (CS) (100) to a Content Viewing System
(CVS) (600) using a proxy and an Intermediary Server (IS) (400). CRS (300) obtains parameters related to the download including at least an identification
of data to be downloaded, the identity of a CS (100) containing the identified data, and the identity of an IS (400) to which the identified data is to be
downloaded. CRS (300) creates a proxy that facilitates the downloading of the identified data from the identified CS (100), the proxy containing the obtained
parameters. The proxy is transmitted to the identified IS (400) which uses the proxy to download the identified data from the identified CS (100) in
accordance with the parameters contained in the proxy. The identified IS (400) then transfers the downloaded data to CVS (600).
