i'd say that if you include e-mail chain letters in the list of inappropriate activities it's not surprising that you'd find 74% guilty. ditto on the jokes in bad taste. bad taste according to whom? i dont like the IRS any more than the next guy but i'm guessing this problem is no better or worse than anywhere else.

It is probably about the same percentage on every corporate computer throughout America. But they are not paid for by your taxes...

I dont like the IRS anymore then anyone else. But a joke... comeon... let a human being send a freaking joke...
Porn or raunchy jokes should be cause for dismissal, however.

I don't have a real problem with this going on at a private company, but NOT an agency that pays its' employees with the taxes it extorts from us...

Your guess would be correct. I actually thought 74% was kind of low, based on everything they listed and what I've seen on employee computers. Evidently, many people think those employees at the IRS either aren't human or should be held to a higher standard than every other employee in the country.

Actual actions of an IRS Employee, made famous:
"... the true story of a man named Michael Kenyon who forced enemas onto some unlucky college students at the University of Illinois over a ten year period stretching from 1965 until he graduated in 1969 as an accountant - go figure.
He moved around the country working for the IRS and wherever he was stationed, enema bandit attacks would occur.
When he returned to Illinois in 1974 he went on a bit of a spree and it was at this point that the cops finally nabbed him.
Frank Zappa wrote a song about it entitled The Illinois Enema Bandit which can be found on the album Zappa In New York."

We'd be better off if they spent ALL their time at the office circulating chain e-mails and looking at porn....

It's not porn, it's System Configuration Management Weaknesses.
