A content sanitization process performed via a transcoding engine. The transcoding engine can include one or more patterns, each pattern identifying malicious content in a well-formed document. The transcoding engine also can include an annotation processor configured to annotate portions of the well-formed document which match the patterns. Finally, the transcoding engine can include a content sanitization processor configured to normalize the annotated portions in a transcoded document. In a preferred aspect of the invention, the transcoding engine can include a privacy policy resolution processor configured to identify terms of a privacy policy and to annotate portions of the well-formed document which violate the terms.

Methods, systems and computer program products are provided for concurrently transferring a plurality of files between a first data processing system and a second data processing system by multiplexing chunks of the plurality of files onto a connection between the first data processing system and the second data processing system and dynamically determining a chunk size for each multiplexed chunk. A 'chunk' is an amount of data from a file to be transferred wherein the amount of data in the chunk is dynamically defined such that differing amounts of data are transferred in each chunk. Furthermore, the transfer of each multiplexed file is tracked so as to allow restarting of an interrupted file transfer from a point of interruption of the transfer.

A method, system, and computer-readable code with which a scheduling system can be implemented that allows a sender and a receiver to change priorities of queued messages. A technique is also defined for providing a receiver with an advance notice of intended message priority, enabling the receiver to request a priority change before transmission begins. These techniques provide the flexibility to respond to changes in dynamic, volatile network environments, as well as changes in user's wishes or requirements. A ranking technique is defined, whereby requests to change priority may be accepted or denied through a ranking algorithm that resolves potential conflicts in desired transmission priority using proposals exchanged by the parties (e.g. during connection establishment).

Systems, methods and computer program products allow intranet administrators to assign, generate and deliver content to users of an intranet. Intranet users are defined and assigned to various defined user groups. Units of content available to users of an intranet are also defined and assigned to various defined content groups. The defined content groups are then associated with the defined user groups such that each of the defined user groups has at least one of the defined units of content associated therewith. A content page creation profile is provided for each defined user and is configured to control how content is displayed within a user's customized content page. Through identified relationships of user groups and content groups, the units of content assigned to a user can be determined and a content page containing the assigned units of content can be created and delivered to a user.
