Abstract
A computer-implemented method is described. The method includes receiving permission from a user to store information on a storage device operatively coupled to a computer system associated with the user, generating a file comprising content designed to cause at least a portion of the file to be displayed in search results when a search of the storage device is performed, and storing the generated file on the storage device in a manner that is invisible to a user of the computer system. Alternatively, the generated file can be stored without a user's permission.
