1. A system for enabling a Java based software applet executing on a client device and associated with a destination site to display content from a third party site separate from the destination site within a browser connected to the Internet, the system comprising:
a proxy software routine configured to execute at the destination site, said proxy being configured:
(1) to monitor requests from the Java based software applet for the content;
(2) to make requests for the content from the third party site, said requests being directed to content that is otherwise not accessible directly by the Java based software applet; and
(3) to cache cookie files identifying the client device and associated with the third party site at the destination site for supporting click-through activities intended for retrieving a uniform resource locator (URL) associated with the content.
