(Porn on Pc) !
 

Every guy watches a bit of porn but its abut stupid to use a work laptop to do it,
unless you have the skills to clean it up lol.

work in the I.T department im a techie and I have just found a load of porn in the temp internet files by the looks of things its a regular thing lol.

Some good sites actually hahah jokes aside.

Its my job to report this kind of stuff.

But I don't want to put a mans job as risk though over a bit of blue you know what I mean.

but if my boss got his hands on it and checked then sees that I haven't done my job right then I am in the crap.

and I'm not going to delete it as I am then braking the rules my self.

I think I am just going to give it back and pretend I didn't see it.

what would you do in my shoes ?

Re: (Porn on Pc) !
 

I found stuff on work laptops numerous times, usually when copying someones data over from old to new laptop...

I always reported it to cover my own back... depends on the workplace I guess


if its just stuff in the internet cache though, i'd have probably ignored it as they'd eventually get caught when someone looked at the logs anyway

Re: (Porn on Pc) !
 

clearing out the internet cache is a perfectly normal routine procedure, either for diagnostic purposes or just for keeping things tidy.

Re: (Porn on Pc) !
 

If you know how to (if it can be done, I have no idea) you could get rid of the evidence and have a little word and say if it comes back again with this on it then you have to report it.

Everyone's a winner, you're the nice guy who will get a pint bought at the next do

yeah when its not full of porn lol .

A welcome bit of common sense :o
Then read the "Irony" thread about George Orwell.;)

Re: (Porn on Pc) !
 

but if you hadn't checked for porn but cleared it out anyway, no-one would be the wiser. Therefore no-one can say you did your job badly - unless your work procedures dictate that you must go through the user's internet cache to find out what they've been up to.

we use to use one guys browsing history to populate our blacklists.

However two incidents spring to mind

The first I had been told of an accountant being "naughty" and had to have two quiet words with him. We had a bar on site and on the third occassion I happened to catch him with his colleagues in the bar. I walked up to him and lifted his hands. "What are you doing?" "Looking for segs". He went bright red, his colleagues laughed and the problem stopped.

A second incident I was alerted to a staff barrister who had been browsing very inappropriately and due to his position I went to see him. His office was in disarray. "Has anyone been using your PC today?" "Only me". "It would appear it has been used to browse porn for most of the day", "Yes, it is my final day here today and I was bored". No further problem.

I am a firm believer in cleaning browsing history/cache etc. and then to use an eraser tool to overwrite where those files used to live.

Re: (Porn on Pc) !
 

decided to just get rid, ill just av a quite word with him when he comes to collect.
