Afternoon, Pam! :)

Other than the (probably cumbersome) solution of arranging the workstations
where
one of the (surely!) many many MANY staff with time to watch like a hawk for
the
preverts [sic, very], the only solution I can think of offhand is to dump
the generic
logins, which may not be an option depending on local admin policies,
either. :(

Subject: How to block use of pornography

Hi.

I've just had a disturbing incident in my library.  Someone downloaded a
number of child pornography stories to one of my machines.  We use
generic logins so there is no way to trace who is cruising these sites after
the fact.

Having a list of approved sites won't work for me since I'm in a health care
environment.  There are too many things that must be available to my
clients.  And most menuing systems that would restrict the desktop won't
work with our OPAC.  Help!  Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Pam Richards
