| 20080320086 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR UPDATING INSTANT MESSAGE TRANSCRIPTS - The present invention provides a system and method for communications system, such as an instant messaging system, to allow encrypted conversations to be updated in real-time. The messages are encrypted with authentication keys or other security measures. The system and method provide the ability to modify an encrypted instant messaging conversation on the fly, where one user can seamlessly update the text without having to retype the full sentence or part of it. A sender's client may allow a sender client system to modify, for example, automatically or upon sender's input a message that has already been delivered to the recipients involved in the communication session. Once modified, the sender's client may allow the sender client system to deliver the revision to the recipients. | 12-25-2008 |
