Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described in detail a game execution blocking system and blocking method using the Internet service provider server of the present invention.

1 is a conceptual diagram of a game execution blocking system using an Internet service provider server according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a block diagram of an Internet service provider (ISP) server according to the present invention, and FIG. 3 is according to the present invention. 4A and 4B are a flowchart of a game execution blocking method using an Internet service provider server according to the present invention, and FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a game for completely blocking execution according to an embodiment of the present invention. 6 is an exemplary diagram, and FIG. 6 is an exemplary diagram for registering a game for limiting execution time according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in Figure 1, the game execution blocking system using the Internet service provider server of the present invention is an Internet service provider (ISP) server 200 for providing an Internet service to the user, and the Internet service provider ( Internet service client (100) is provided to the Internet user to receive the Internet service. When an internet user registers a list in a game that the user wants to completely block execution on the Internet service provider server 200 or registers a list of games that allow execution for a predetermined time, the Internet service provider server 200 If the information on the game executed in the client 100 of the Internet user is the same as the game corresponding to the registered list generates a signal to automatically block the execution and provide to the client 100, the client 100 is a blocking signal Blocks the execution of the game corresponding to Accordingly, the game can be restricted without installing a separate anti-addiction program on a plurality of computers used by teenagers at home.

Looking at the Internet service provider (ISP) server 200 in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention in detail with reference to Figure 2, the Internet service provider (ISP) server 200 is the Internet user management module 202, game blocking List registration module 204, game restriction list registration module 206, game block list comparison module 208, game restriction list comparison module 210, blocking signal transmission module 212, history record module 214 And a control module 216 and various databases 218 to 228.

The Internet user management module 202 registers an Internet user who wants to receive the Internet execution service as a member, assigns a member ID and a password, and stores and manages the member in the member DB 218. Members registered in the Internet Service Provider (ISP) server 200 may use various services provided by the Internet Service Provider server 200 as well as the execution of the Internet.

The game block list registration module 204 receives information about a game to be completely blocked from running on the client from the Internet user who is a member and stores the information about the game in the game block list DB 220. In this case, it is preferable that the registered game displays age groups of 20 years old, 19 years old, 15 years old, or the like so that the Internet user can easily check them later. On the other hand, it is natural that the list of such games is stored in the Internet service provider (ISP) server 200 and selects the game information and registers the game block list DB 220.

The game restriction list registration module 206 allows only a predetermined time to be executed from the Internet user who is a member, and stores information on the game and execution time which blocks the execution at other times, and stores it in the game restriction list DB 222. do. At this time, the execution time can be accumulated and registered by selecting the total time to allow only the total time or to register to allow execution only at a specific time. Accordingly, when a child runs a game at home through a client, a game with a limited execution time may block execution except for a possible execution time, and execution may be forcibly blocked if time passes even after execution.

The game block list comparison module 208 receives information about an executable file to be executed when the executable file is executed from the client 100 and compares the game information registered in the game block list DB 220 in real time to match the game. Generate a blocking signal to block execution. In other words, if it matches a game registered in the game block list DB 220, a blocking signal for blocking execution is generated so that the game is not executed. If it does not match, the game is not controlled.

The game restriction list comparison module 210 compares the execution file information that is not matched by the game block list comparison module 208 with the game information registered in the game restriction list DB 222 in real time and executes the same as the registered game. It is checked whether this is a possible time, and if the execution time is possible, the game is authorized to be executed, and if it is not the execution time, a blocking signal for blocking the execution of the game is generated. At this time, only if the execution time matches the limited game, the registered time is compared to determine the execution, and if not, the execution is not controlled. Accordingly, if the game is run through the member's client with a limited execution time, execution can be blocked at a time other than the registered time, and execution can be forcibly blocked if time elapses after the execution.

The blocking signal transmission module 212 transmits a blocking signal generated by the game block list comparison module 208 and the game restriction list comparison module 210 to the client 100 so that a game to be executed on the client is not executed.

The usage history recording module 214 stores and manages information on the entire execution file provided from the client 100 and the usage time of the execution file in the usage history DB 226 together with the member ID.

And, the control module 216 controls the data flow between each module (202 ~ 214).

Meanwhile, as shown in FIG. 3, the client 100 provides an executable file information transmission module 102 and an Internet service for providing the Internet service provider server 200 with information on the executable file executed by the client 100. It is provided with a game execution blocking module 104 to block the execution of the game in accordance with the blocking signal received from the provider server 200. Accordingly, the client provides the Internet service provider server 200 with information about the executable file that the user executes over the Internet, the executable file embedded in the client, or the executable file when the CD is executed, and the Internet service provider server. The game may be blocked from running according to the blocking signal provided from 200.

A method of blocking game execution using an Internet service provider server will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 4A and 4B.

First, when an Internet user joins an Internet service provider (ISP) that provides Internet services such as KT communication, Hanaro communication (step S301), the Internet service provider server 200 grants a member ID and password to various members. The information is stored in the member DB 218 together with the information (step S302).

After that, the Internet user prepares a list of games to be completely blocked upon execution request from the client's client 100 through the game block list registration module 204 after accessing the Internet service provider server 200. Then, it is registered in the game block list DB 220 (step S303). For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the name of the game to be completely blocked, the URL of the corresponding site, and age groups of 20 years old or more, 19 years old or more, and 15 years old or more are registered and registered. At this time, if the setting state is set to "block", it is a state of requesting execution block for the registered game, and if it is set to "not block", it is a state of allowing even the registered game to run. Information about such a completely blocked game can be provided by the Internet service provider (ISP) server 200, and at this time, the Internet user "blocking" or "not blocking" can be selectively registered.

On the other hand, the Internet user registers the list of the game and the allowable time for the game that is allowed to run only at a certain time through the game limit list registration module 206 of the Internet service provider server 200 in the game limit list DB 222. (Step S304). For example, as shown in FIG. 6, an execution restriction on the registered registered game may be allowed for several hours on a day basis or may be restricted to be executed only at a specific time period. Accordingly, in the case of children using the game at home, if the game has a limit in the execution time, it is checked. If the execution is out of time, the execution may be blocked, and execution may be forcibly blocked when the execution time elapses.

When a web browser or a CD or a stored executable file is clicked by the client of the Internet user (step S305), the executable file information transmission module 102 of the client 100 displays the information about the clicked executable file by the Internet service provider server 200 (Step S306).

The Internet user management module 202 of the Internet service provider server 200 checks whether the connected client is a member whose execution of the game is restricted (step S307). If it is a registered member, it stores the information on the execution file received from the client 100 through the usage history recording module 214 in the usage history DB 226 (step S308). Such a method of checking whether a game is a limited member can be used in various ways, such as analyzing a unique serial number of a modem received when the client executes the Internet.

On the other hand, by using the game block list comparison module 208 to compare the information on the executable file provided from the client 100 to the game block list DB (220) whether the same as the game in real time (step S309). If the comparison result matches the registered game list, a block signal for blocking the execution of the game is generated (step S310). If the comparison does not match, execution is not controlled.

In addition, the game restriction list comparison module 210 compares the information on the execution file that does not match in the game blocking list comparison module 208 with the game list registered in the game restriction list DB 222 in real time (step). S311). If the result of the comparison matches the registered game list, it is checked whether it is time to execute (step S312), and if it is not the allowable time, a blocking signal for blocking execution is generated (steps S313 and S314).

As such, the blocking signal generated by the game block list comparison module 208 and the game limit list comparison module 210 is transmitted from the corresponding client 100 (step S315).

Meanwhile. The game execution blocking module 104 of the client 100 blocks the execution of the game according to the blocking signal received from the Internet service provider server 200 (step S316). Accordingly, the client may selectively block only a specific game when the executable file of the web browser or the executable file embedded in the client or the CD is executed.

Through the above process, even if the registration is completed for the game list and the allowable time of the game list and the allowable time to block the execution only when the execution request is requested from the client of the member, the Internet service provider in real time. After running on the server, you can delete or change the configured list.

As described above, the game execution blocking system using the Internet service provider server according to the present invention can be registered using the router because the Internet subscribers can individually register the list of games to be blocked on the Internet service provider server Even if you use the computer has the advantage of blocking all registered games.

In addition, the Internet subscriber can set the use time for the game individually on the Internet service provider server has the advantage that it is easy to prevent the game addiction of children without installing a separate game-addiction program on the computer.

In addition, even if the same computer is used, the parent who manages the member ID and password of the subscribed Internet service provider server has a list of games and a time limit for the games that want to block only the execution time and the list of the games to be blocked. Even if you use the same computer by deleting or changing in real time, there is an advantage that you can use the Internet differently.

In addition, there is an advantage that can block all the game running on the Internet of the client or the game running on the CD or the real game stored in the client.
