Ok, so how about if you use a machine owned by the company, and use it to connect to the internet over the connection paid for by the company, and "do" your personal "business" . Ethically and legally that is theft, just as is taking home some paper clips or pens. That is why some people do need to be treated like naughty little boys and girls. I would like to slap users when they say "My computer..this or that" Unless you own the company then no it is not your computer, desk, chair, pen, paper, coffee cup etc etc
