Abstract

An access control system and method is disclosed. The access control system and method includes a terminal and a server. The terminal determines whether to allow access to a requested website and generates a request to the server to download information from the requested website if the terminal determines to allow access. The server determines whether to allow the terminal access to the requested website and provides information from the requested website to the terminal. The server examines the request to determine whether or not the terminal has made a determination whether to allow access to the requested website. The terminal and server work in combination to determine whether to grant access to the requested website. And the server's determination whether to allow the terminal access is dependent on the server's determination of whether or not the terminal has made a determination whether to allow access to the requested website.
