P orn is biggest IT abuse for British public servants

What is the biggest IT abuse across public services in the UK? Answer: The downloading of p ornography, according to public spending watchdog, the Audit Commission. The Times reports that according to the commission, downloading of p orn now represents nearly 50% of all cases of IT abuse. The commission has called for software to be installed urgently in all public sector computers to prevent users from accessing p ornographic sites. It gives warning that once staff gain access to some of these Web sites they can be tempted into more dangerous and illegal areas such as child p ornography.
