In the boradroom at my old job the ceo asked about our web blocker so i decided to show him how it worked by going to sex.com which of course opened along with about 20 porn related pop ups. He just laughed and walked out lucky for me.

we have a blanket ban on certain words or parts of words. it pops up a warning page telling you what a bad person you've been.

in an aside, once very long ago when I was a junior unix admin, someone asked me to restore their bookmarks file, which they'd accidentally deleted. When I located it on tape, I noticed that the fellow had about 30 fetish websites bookmarked. I replaced the file with the generic company list of bookmarks and let the customer know the file had been restored. Never heard a thing of it. these days they'd prolly do me for violating the user's privacy heheh.

I could believe it if it was just the porn, but how you explain the cumshot all over the secretarys' face?

I can't remember the name but in my Industrial placement I worked in company that tested WML and WAP. One day, searching a WAP emulation tool I knew the name of I put the name in www.wap<something>.COM.

Queue the hordes of pr0n pop-ups which sent me into a panicked Alt-F4 frenzy.

 

[Chilly]

meh - I know for a fact no one really watches the cache logs at work. there isnt a filter

There is a trade magazine that has a monthly article about interesting booze related websites. One in this particular month was about underage drinking experiences in Australia. I must have been particularly hungover as when the site, address underage dot au dot com (that was the main part there was more to the address) didn't show up I put the parts into google. Never alt+f4'd that fast in my life.

Thank god there is no IT department to speak of in my company.

F*ck I'm stupid!

I think it will depend mostly on the context it was viewed in (i.e. were you looking for porn or was it an accidental click/url ) and if the company has an acceptable use policy on internet usage. you might be lucky if it was a single hit and the rest of the web usage is normal stuff.

The big problem is that you are a temp, they don't need to do any disciplinary procedures with you and can just "wrap up" your contract immediately if they so wish, and you can't really do much about it.

I would guess most companies would put "browsing pornographic material or materials of an offensive material" as gross misconduct and you would lose your job pretty quickly... I know the company I work for has it listed under "gross misconduct" in their disciplinary policy.

I had a similar experience in my first admin job. However in this case it was recovering their personal files from a non-booting PC and the fetish content wasn't bookmarks but a lot of .jpg files. The staff member whose PC it was, was actually in most of the ones I saw!

ALT+F4 has never been pressed so fast after I realised no women were involved.

:eek2: :eek2:

Accidentally watching pron?

Is that like:

"My pants fell, i tripped and my hand typed out sex.com+enter while my other, in a frantic attempt to pick up my pants, grabbed my willy instead! Honest!!"

 

[itcheh]

My CEO swears that the pr0n sites are the bleeding edge of web marketing ... and often calls me round to show me something new ...

... make of that what you will
