Yer, we're in a difficult situation here, before I started the previous IT
manager was the worst offender running warez ftp and tune ftps etc,
regularly ripping and cracking games for distribution in the office, the
server had a 1gb share of pr0n (this was 6 years ago, the server was only
20gb big so that was a lot!). And there was no firewall to the company plus
no rules.
Now the apathy and lack of real understanding of the problem from the
managers and the unwillingness of them to clamp down on this type of thing
sees us still with a stupidly big onsite collection of crap that is just a
liability timebomb waiting to go off (I have imposed a strong policy of not
letting materials leave the company though so its sorta contained :( ).
And annoyingly as we work on games development its often hard to make a
judgement on what is work related mp3's and trash mp3s.
Favorite lack of understanding point was when some users said they'd club
together to buy a machine and kit it with hard disks so they could have
their own mp3 server.. Heh, no.

As far as I know, I've only got one client remaining that has any sort of
music downloading going on. All have been seen the light and been cleansed
of their illegal music. The one remaining happens to be the biggest &*(*^&*%
and only allows his employees to visit 10 websites, while he has full reign
and spends time downloading music and playing poker. There's no talking
sense into a person like that.

My favorite small biz customers were those who had folders named "Special"
I'll leave it to your imagination as to what was found in those folders.
Hint: the RIAA wouldn't care.
