The invention generally relates to generating a display having graphical and/or media components at a client. In one aspect, a method for generating a graphical display at a client includes transmitting output from an application program executing on a server to the client, identifying a non-textual element within the application output, retrieving a compressed data format associated with the non-textual element, and transmitting to the client the compressed data format in place of the non-textual element. In another aspect, a method for generating a media presentation at a client includes transmitting output from an application program executing on a server to the client, identifying a media stream within the application output, intercepting an original compressed data set representing at least a portion of the media stream before processing by the application program, and transmitting the original compressed data set to the client.

A method for associating a file type of a file with one or more programs includes the step of receiving a request to store in a configuration store file type association information. From the request, an application program is determined that is to be associated with a file type in the configuration store. An association of the file type with a chooser tool is written to the configuration store

A method for isolating access by application programs to native resources provided by an operating system redirects a request for a native resource made by an application program executing on behalf of a user to an isolation environment. The isolation environment includes a user isolation scope and an application isolation scope. An instance of the requested native resource is located in the user isolation scope corresponding to the user. The request for the native resource is fulfilled using the version of the resource located in the user isolation scope. If an instance of the requested native resource is not located in the user isolation scope, the request is redirected to an application isolation scope. The request for the native resource is fulfilled using the version of the resource located in the application isolation scope. If an instance of the requested native resource is not located in the application isolation scope, the request is redirected to a system scope.
