Abstract
An internet service node (ISN) for sending unsolicited web pages only to users agreeing to receive unsolicited web page. An internet service provider (ISP) may charge lower rates to users agreeing to receive unsolicited web pages. For example, an ISP may send an unsolicited web page in response to the first web page request for a user. In general, a user may agree to receive different types of unsolicited web pages under different conditions. An ISN may monitor the data flows related to the user to determine whether any condition is satisfied; and a web server may be used to generate and send the corresponding unsolicited web page.
