How about what I call the "Microsoft Platinum Start-Up Cock" that always shows on my screen everytime I reboot. It comes with MS XP Pro and I wish I could attach the photo. I was told years ago that a disgruntled programmer photoshopped his penis into an image that also reads Platinum and caused it to load on start up before Microsoft found out and then it was too late. The reason I am mentioning this is because evern since then I just want someone to tell me how to remove it or replace it with a better picture! Here is what should come up under ‘Obscene’.

Ultimately where does social responsibility lie? And do 'we' the general public want to be able to take on our sets of social criteria, or should there be a more nannied state approach. Strikes me that so far things are a bit hit and miss, and this is a grey area where social responsibility on behalf the individual can be swiftly side lined by new regulations, and/or new applications of the same technology. Look at how far the Internet has come for example. <br/><br/>Interpretation is a beautiful thing. But then so is Google. @ Neil,

You make the point about Googled 'watermelon'; innocent in one way, this could also be interpreted in another way. <br/><br/>Also are we responsible for our action, and / or others too?
