It's not the home environment that concerns me here, but the business
environment where PC hardware is always switched/upgraded/tinkered with. I
wonder what kind of affect this will have on businesses who are, sometimes
exclusively, invested in their products.

I think there's another issue here that we haven't mentioned relating
the the US vs EU. The US's definition of "Porn" is completely different
from other countries. For example, in Japan, Technology Magazines contain

There's no reason to argue N2H2's effectiveness or in-effectiveness in
this newsgroup. The issue is censorship, not N2H2. Are you really
resorting to slandering my company's product in order to prove your
