4. The browsing device according to claim 2 , wherein the displayed notice information includes at least one payment button for receiving a request from the user to make a payment for the at least one of the products contained in the purchase list, and

wherein the computer program code further comprises:

input receiver code configured to cause at least one of said at least one processor to receive the request that is made by pressing the at least one payment button; and

payment instructor code configured to cause at least one of said at least one processor to, based on the request being received, instruct at least one server, via a communication network, to process the payment for the at least one of the products.

5. An information processing system, comprising:

a browsing device that is used by a user; and

a server connected to the browsing device, via a communication network,

wherein the server comprises:

a storage storing open information and notice information accompanying the open information; and

a transmitter transmitting the open information and the notice information, to the browsing device,

wherein the browsing device comprises:

at least one memory configured to store computer program code; and

at least one processor configured to access said at least one memory and operate as instructed by said computer program code, said computer program code comprising:

acquirer code configured to cause at least one of said at least one processor to acquire:

the open information that is requested to be browsed by the user; and

the notice information from the server, wherein the notice information is notified to the user; and

display code configured to cause at least one of said at least one processor to:

based on the open information and the notice information being acquired, display the open information in a display region of a browser, along with the notice information within a notice region that is a portion of the display region, wherein the notice region overlays the displayed open information;
