         Appeal No. 2006-1492                                                       
         Application No. 09/884,489                                                 




              While appellants argue (principal brief-page 13) that                 
         HistoryKill makes no reference to identification of sessions               
         based on the selected user identification,” it is clear to us              
         that HistoryKill does teach this since a single, or complete               
         session may constitute an “identification of sessions.”  If there          
         is only one session, then that session has been identified.                
              At page 3 of the reply brief, appellants argue that                   
         independent claims 1, 16, 24, 39, 43, and 45 include collecting            
         history information on a browser “for multiple browser sessions,           
         such as different times/dates, for each identified user.”  We              
         find no such limitation of “multiple browser sessions” in these            
         claims.  Arguments directed to non-claimed limitations are not             
         persuasive of nonobviousness of the claimed subject matter.  The           
         instant claims do not appear to preclude a single browser                  
         session, as described by HistoryKill.                                      
              With regard to the rejection of claims 18, 19, 23, 41, 42,            
         and 46, based on HistoryKill, alone, appellants argue (principal           
         brief-page 17) that HistoryKill does not teach or suggest that an          
         identified user may select a domain from a list of identified              

                                         8
