Let me go into more detail, there could be many things on that computer, the software I mentioned in my original reply will search for and delete any spyware programs. The reason I gave you that, is because most porn website or porn media is associated with spyware, but if there is porn pictures on the PC, and its not spyware then those program most likely will not find it. And you really cannot tell the computer to do a search for porn, not as of yet, maybe in the future. So what you will need to do, is go to start-search-find then type *.*bmp press enter, and you will need to decide what is porn and what is not. Also do the same thing, but this time do *.*jpg press enter. This will delete some of the stuff, but see the problem is if its pictures of porn then there might be many to delete, and so many different formats. So if you have the genuine Windows Me cd, and the OEM number then you should just format and start new, but that is up to you. Those programs can be downloaded at www.download.com the virus scan can be run here: housecall.trendmicro.com download MS Spyware here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=321cd7a2- 6a57-4c57-a8bd-dbf62eda9671&displaylang=en
I also going to move your topic to Windows Me, you can move your topic here:

Well you can download Adaware, Spybot, and MS Antispyware, and you could also do a search for viruses, just in case it does have any.
