    • A method is provided for retrieving Web content from a plurality of Web servers for delivery to a Web client connectable to the World Wide Web via a communication link. The Web client is preferably a data processing system connectable to a television or other conventional monitor to provide low cost Internet access. The method begins by having the user define a set of one or more servers from which content is desired to be retrieved and stored in the cache. These servers are preferably identified by a list of favorite Web sites. A test is then made to determine whether a given download period has terminated (250). Typically, this download period occurs during an "off" period, such as in the middle of the night, to avoid traffic congestion at the Web server sites. If the given download period has not terminated, a determination is then made of an activity level for the communication link as content is being downloaded to the cache from the one or more servers (254). If the activity level for the communication link is less than a given threshold level, additional requests for content are issued to the cache (260) according to a so-called "fairness policy" that ensures that content from as many sites as possible is downloaded during the download period.
