Porn Websites Multiply
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LONDON -- Websense, Inc. (NASDAQ: WBSN - message board), the world’s leading provider of employee Internet management (EIM) software, today announced that the number of pornography Web sites in the Websense® URL database is more than 17 times greater than it was just four years ago—surging from approximately 88,000 in 2000 to nearly 1.6 million sites today. This dramatic growth has been fuelled by new technology such as high-speed Internet connections and streaming media, as well as innovative guerrilla tactics used by porn vendors to attract and keep visitors at their sites. With unlimited access to a high-speed Internet connection and streaming media at work, employees can be easily lured to X-rated sites—knowingly or unwittingly.
Nielsen/NetRatings estimated that 34 million people visited porn sites in August 2003, about one in four Internet users in the U.S. According to ComScore Networks, 37 percent of Internet-enabled employees in the U.S. have visited an "X-rated" Web site while at work.
