New software to fight Indian pornography sites

An Indian IT company has launched a broadband service which it says is free from pornography websites.

Its Optima N-10 software filters pornographic material by checking net content on 200 Internet-enabled computers.

Drishti Systems, which has developed the software, claims no other product has been able to achieve the process with such accuracy.

Pornography is banned in India but policing the net has been difficult amidst the booming IT market in India.

India has nearly 40 million Internet users and its PC sales were projected to have crossed 6.5 million units for year ending March 2007.
