The invention relates to a server (115) for communicating over a client-server network (125). The server (115) includes a receiver receiving a first request from a first client (110) to establish a communication session with the server. The server (115) also has a user session mechanism (205) that establishes a user session in response to the first request. The server additionally includes a client session mechanism (310) that establishes a first client session in response to the first request. Upon termination of the first client session, the server (115) stores user session data in a memory element (315), which can be, for example, a database. The receiver also receives a second request, the user session mechanism reactivates the user session. (FIG.1)
