Red face Finding Porn on a workstation ....

ah jeez, this morning was the most orquad morning I've ever had working in IT ever.....

One of the guys came to me yesturday saying his internet explorer was acting up, I went to the machine and decided on doing a repair of IE and then applying Sp3.

Everything was going grand, until i got an error saying Sp3 could not continue because lack of space on c drive. So i then went on the hunt for extra space, deleting files here and there. Then I came to a folder 'My Music' which was 730MB's. 'hmm' I taught to myself, I went into the folder only to find tonnes and tonnes of PORN MPEG's !!!!!!

It was around this time I noticed the guy was standing behind me !!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHH, RUN AWAY

I just pretended that i didnt see them and contined to browse the c drive but the fella was as red as a tomato !!! ROFL

Fcuk im..It's his own fault for being stupid enough to store it on his work PC. I would have turned around and laughed in his face.. Did you happen to notice if the floor was a little sticky under his desk.

reminds me of when we got the laptop from a user to change some of the settings, my colleague who was working on it just happened to look at the cookies and temp internet files, and found a whole load going to Gay porn websites. my colleague being the kind of guy he is brought it to my attention in an official way, which therefore meant i had to take it further and take it to my boss, who brought it to the attention of the users boss plus personnel.

this therefore resulted in an email going round warning of such things , the user wasn't sacked there and then, but was gone within a couple of months.

NB this laptop was shared between the users in his department which included quite a few female users, so don't feel too sorry for him

At a previous job we had a problem with porn on servers so we made all the offending files read-only then got the big boss to send round an e-mail anouncing a porn amnesty of one week, after which time an audit would be carried out and anyone found with offending pics would be summarily fired.

What a laugh as people sheepishly called the helpdesk to as why certain 'files' could not be deleted. To say the helpdesk staff milked the situation would not be an understatement!

Its kind of funny, but then again its not.
Porn is a real addiction that wreaks marraiges, jobs etc etc. I think at work there should be blockers like 'websense' employed to kill off temptation.

Doesn't this incident present the opportunity to examine the contents and decide if the files are of wholly adult material - featuring consenting adults, or indeed if they contain any 'really nasty stuff'. And then decide what appropriate action to take. You know what I mean.

If I were that guy, I would have legged it out of the door by now, possibly out of the country.
