Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. While the exemplary embodiments of the present invention are shown in the drawings, it is understood that the invention may be embodied in various forms and not limited by the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be more fully understood, and the scope of the disclosure may be fully conveyed to those skilled in the art.

Referring to FIG. 1, which is a flowchart of a method for providing a browser according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1, the method may include the following steps:

S110: Start a first browser for the user, and monitor the browsing process of browsing the webpage through the first browser;

In the process of using the browser, users often encounter some problems. For example, the browser that comes with the system is not updated in time, resulting in poor security and easy infection of Trojans, which can not effectively prevent advertisements, such as interference, in order to solve these problems. , can provide users with alternative products of the current browser for users to choose, to solve the problems encountered by users using the current browser. First, the user can start the first browser and monitor the browsing process of the webpage through the first browser. The so-called first browser can be the browser that the user currently installs and uses. For example, in some operating systems, the default browser is often used, and the default browser of the system can be used as the so-called first browser.

On the one hand, the event that the user starts the first browser can be monitored, so that the user starts the browser to browse; on the other hand, the browsing process of the user browsing the webpage can be monitored, such as which webpage the user browses, through the first How fast browsers open web pages, and more. Furthermore, it is also possible to monitor events that the user completes through a certain page of the first browser.

Specifically, during monitoring, monitoring can be implemented by a third-party program running in the system, or a plug-in can be installed in the first browser in advance, and monitoring can be implemented through the installed plug-in. In addition, the third-party program and the browser plug-in can be combined to complete the browsing process of starting the first browser for the user and browsing the webpage through the first browser. For example, in the Windows Windows operating system, the operating system comes with an IE (Interne t Explorer, IE for short) browser, such an operating system application, including a component object model COM framework under the third-party program, such an application The program can interact with the browser auxiliary object BH0 plug-in in the IE browser, realize the function of acquiring the information in the IE browser, and controlling the information in the IE browser, etc., in the user using the IE in the Windows operating system When the browser browses, the user can access the user through the third-party program under the component object model COM framework, and the browser auxiliary object BH0 plug-in preset in the first browser. The first browser is started, and the browsing process of browsing the webpage through the first browser is monitored.

S120: Obtain browsing information of the user browsing the webpage through the first browser; the browsing process information of the webpage browsed by the first browser may include the webpage of the webpage to be browsed, the opening speed of the webpage, the security of the webpage, browsing For the information of the browsing process, for the browsing process information, only one type may be acquired, or a plurality of types may be acquired, and the determining condition is used to determine whether to trigger the provision of the second browser. Some of the browsing process information needs to be obtained after the webpage being browsed is completed. For example, the opening speed of the webpage is obtained, and the opening speed of the webpage is obtained after all the content of the webpage is loaded, and the obtained opening speed is compared. Accurate; As with the security of the webpage, the judgment of the overall security of the webpage will be more accurate and effective after the content of the webpage is fully loaded. In effect, if the webpage opened by the first browser contains a particularly large pop-up advertisement, after the second browser is provided to the user and installed, if the second browser can effectively intercept the advertisement, the user can After a browser and a second browser finish loading the same webpage, it is very intuitive to see the interception effect of the second browser on the advertisement. Therefore, after monitoring the event that the first browser finishes loading the browsed webpage, the browsing process information of the user browsing the webpage through the first browser is obtained. For example, when the user browses as the first browser by using the IE browser in the Windows operating system, the Navigation Compete event sent when the browser loads the webpage can be monitored, and after receiving the event, the user is obtained through the IE. The browser browses the browsing process information of the webpage.

In a specific application, the browsing process information of the user browsing the webpage through the first browser may be obtained through the foregoing third-party application or the plug-in preset in the first browser. You can also use the third-party program and the browser plug-in to get the above browsing process information. For example, when the user browses using the IE browser in the Windows operating system, the third browser program in the COM framework and the BH0 plug-in preset in the first browser can be used to obtain the user through the first browser. Browse the browsing process information of the webpage.

S130: Determine whether the browsing process information triggers a preset trigger condition.

After obtaining the browsing process information of browsing the webpage through the first browser, the obtained browsing process information may be judged to determine whether the triggered triggering condition is triggered. As described above, the obtained browsing process information may include one or more types, and correspondingly, when the step S130 is implemented, the browsing process information obtained may be implemented in various manners, which are respectively introduced below.

First, the browsing process information may include the web address of the webpage to be browsed. In this implementation manner, when determining whether the browsing process information triggers the preset triggering condition, the preset blacklist may be queried by using the webpage of the browsed webpage; If the web address of the browsed webpage is in the preset blacklist, it is determined that the browsing process information triggers the preset trigger condition.

The preset blacklist can be located on the client or on the cloud server on the network. When the preset blacklist is located in the cloud server, after obtaining the URL of the webpage browsed by the first browser, The webpage of the webpage to be browsed is sent to the cloud server through the network, and the preset blacklist of the cloud server is queried by using the webpage of the webpage to be browsed; and whether the browsing process information triggers the preset triggering condition is determined according to the result of the query by the cloud server. The preset blacklist may be a preset blacklist of advertisement URLs, including a webpage corresponding to the webpage having more pop-up advertisements, affecting the browsing of the user; or a preset blacklist of malicious URLs, including malicious code, or The URL of a malicious web page that spreads a malicious program; or it can be a combination of the two as a preset blacklist.

When the blacklist is queried on the webpage of the webpage to be browsed, the query may be based on the full URL of the webpage, or may be queried according to the domain name included in the webpage of the browsed webpage, that is, the preset blacklist is queried according to the domain name in the webpage of the browsed webpage. If it can be queried, it is determined that the browsing process information triggers the preset trigger condition, further simplifying the query process.

Secondly, the browsing process information may include security information of the webpage to be browsed, and the security information of the webpage may be information about the webpage indicating whether the webpage contains malicious code or malware of malicious programs. When the user browses through the first browser, the security information of the web page viewed by the user can be obtained. Specifically, the detection program can be used to detect the webpage browsed by the user, or the webpage of the webpage can be sent to the server, and the security check of the webpage is performed by the server, and the detected result is returned. After obtaining the security information of the webpage that the user passes through the first browser, if the webpage is not secure, it is determined that the browsing process information triggers the preset triggering condition.

Again, the browsing process information includes the speed at which the web page being viewed is opened. In the process of opening a page, if the page is opened slowly, in addition to the network speed or slow server response, etc., a large part of the situation is because the browser itself is more efficient in loading/rendering/displaying the content of the webpage. low. Therefore, the opening speed of the obtained webpage can be used as a browsing process information, and the opening speed of the browsed webpage is compared with the preset speed threshold. If the opening speed is lower than the preset speed threshold, the browsing process can be determined. The information triggers the preset trigger condition. Judgment of interest. If the combination of any two or more of the foregoing browsing process information is obtained, it is determined whether the obtained two or more browsing process information triggers the corresponding preset triggering condition, and only two types are obtained. If the two or more browsing process information triggers the corresponding preset triggering condition, the related information of the second browser is provided to the user.

S140: If the browsing process information triggers a preset trigger condition, the user is provided with information about the second browser.

When the user browses through the first browser, if the acquired browsing process information triggers the preset triggering condition, the second browser may be provided to the user. For example, when the user browses a webpage or a malicious webpage with too many advertisements through the first browser, the first browser does not effectively intercept excessive advertisements or malicious code in the webpage, and the webpage is loaded. . This can be added to the page. When the loading is completed, the user is provided with information about the second browser, such as providing the download address of the second browser, feature introduction, user evaluation and the like. At the same time, the user may also be prompted to display a prompt message prompting the use of the first browser to browse the page, and the second browser may be installed to overcome the deficiencies, such as prompting the user: the current webpage contains too many advertisements, Install a second browser for effective ad blocking; for example, prompt the user: The current web page contains malicious code or programs, and the second browser can be installed to protect against malicious code programs. Further, a shortcut installation portal of the second browser may also be provided. When the user selects to install the second browser through the shortcut installation portal, the installation file of the second browser may be automatically acquired and installed. While prompting the user, it is convenient to install the second browser according to the user's decision, thereby eliminating the process of the user searching for and downloading the installation file of the second browser.

In addition, an abort installation portal for suspending the installation process of the second browser may be provided. When the user suspends the installation by suspending the installation portal, the installation of the second browser is suspended, facilitating the installation process of the second browser by the user. Take control.

Because not all users need to install the second browser, before providing the relevant information of the second browser, it is also possible to first determine whether the second browser related information needs to be provided according to certain condition information, and provide a second browsing. The frequency of the relevant information of the device, etc., in order to provide the relevant information of the second browser in a better manner. Then, according to the obtained condition information, determining the number or frequency of providing the related information of the second browser to the user; and providing the user with relevant information of the second browser according to the determined number or frequency: in an actual application, the following may be obtained Whether the second browser is installed in the system:

Whether the information about the second browser has been provided on the same day: if the information about the second browser has been provided on the same day, it may be no longer provided, or the information may be provided at a lower frequency;

The number of times the related information of the second browser is provided: If the information about the second browser is provided, and the number of times the information is provided reaches a certain number, it may be no longer provided, or the information may be provided at a lower frequency;

Whether the user is a user with computer experience: The user is a user who has experience in using the computer, and may provide information or provide information at a lower frequency.

When obtaining the user as a conditional information for the user having the experience of using the computer, the browsing history record in the preset time period of the user may be acquired; and the preset experience website list is queried by using the website address in the browsing history; wherein the experience website list is in the list A URL that is frequently accessed by users who have saved their computer experience; then, depending on the result of the query, if the URL in the browsing history matches the URL in the experience URL list, or the URL in the browsing history matches the URL in the experience URL list If the number of matches reaches the preset number threshold, the user is determined to be a user with computer experience. The method for providing a browser provided by the embodiment of the present invention is described above. The method for monitoring a browsing process of a user browsing a webpage through a first browser can be monitored by the user to start a browsing process of the first browser and browsing the webpage through the first browser. Process information; browsing process information reflects the situation in which the first browser loads the web page, and also reflects the problems generated by the user using the first browser. Providing related information of the second browser when the browsing process information triggers the preset trigger condition. Therefore, in the process of using the first browser by the user, the related information of the second browser is provided to the user for the shortage of the first browser.
