User wants porn

by jdclyde . Updated 19 years, 5 months ago

Got a home user, using his personal computer from his house, using his personal internet connection. No kids, so that is not a concern either.

Nothing he is using or doing is work related, just a “case of beer” side job.

The user wants to “safely surf porn”. This puts me in a new situation, as this isn’t exactly what they teach you in network management classes. :0

Which browser is the most secure for this activity?
IE with everything patched and java/activex/scripting turned off?
FireFox?
Opra?
I have never seen this as a selling point of a browser before. “We do porn better!” ;\

He has two systems, one Win2k and one WinXPpro and he will be using both.
I tried talking him into a linux distro, but he was not interested.
I tried talking him into “user” account, but he was not interested. Didn’t want to have to deal with multiple logins. ~sigh~

So he is not making things easy on me, and I am tired of having to remove malware all the time! (yes, I take in my own keyboard and mouse! :0 ) Back to school now and I have my boys full time now, I just don’t have time to keep messing with this!

Just stopping supporting the guy will cause hard feelings, so I would like to just lock the system down as much as possible.

Any ideas? I know, this is a strange one! :p
