Default Man Cleared Of Charges, Malware To Blame

I hope this guy sues the **** out of the state of Massachusetts for huge amounts of money. Nothing can repair the damage of being fired for child porn but a big fat settlement is a good start.

His laptop initially attracted attention because its wireless usage was four times higher than that of his co-workers. But because the IT department hadn't properly configured the agency laptop and antivirus software wasn't working on the machine, it was riddled with Trojans and viruses, in addition to the malicious software that was bringing up the porn sites.
