Abstract

The software program provides a unique arrangement and integration of CD drive, data server, and PC hard disk drive technologies. The program provides open- ended, flexible, and timely updating of software programs and content for users at a remote site because the user can download individual updated program modules as needed from a designated information site through a data server to a PC hard disk drive during a program run. Therefore, the user is not required to download the updated program, await the next release of a CD containing the updated program, or use the updated program directly on a designated information site. In addition to the program modules on the CD, the user can use downloaded updated program modules from either the current or a previous program run. The updated program modules are either replacements for those on the CD or additional program modules to the entire program. The program includes linking software, such that each of the program modules on both the CD and the PC hard disk drive contains an identical yet independent software interface that allows interconnecting to all other program modules. Because the user may also download updated program modules from the designated information site to the PC hard disk drive as needed during a program run, the present invention provides seamless interactivity between program modules on the CD, downloaded program modules on the PC hard disk drive, and replacement or additional program modules at the designated information site.
