Still and moving images, usually of women, in
varying states of nudity, posing or performing erotic acts
with men, women, animals, machines, or other props. Some say
it degrades women, some say it corrupts young boys (who
down-load it from the web or exchange it on
floppy disks). Most of it is in the form of JPEG images.
Many websites offer porn of all sorts, almost always for a
subscription. It is said that these are a driving force in
the evolution of new technology and techniques for the web.
Advertisments for them certainly constitute a significant
proportion of all spam. There are even pornographic
computer games, an early example being Mac Playmate.
Beware - many institutions, particularly universities, have
strict rules against their computers and networks being used
to transfer or store such things, and you might get corrupted.
