    Just read this and was a little shocked, and i must say somewhat impressed at the dedication he mustve had.

    Beats my sneaky ventures onto the Hexus forum.

    Is someone getting confused between vists and hits again?

    Something doesn't add up about that story.

    That works out at almost 10,000 pages a day, or more than 20 each minute he was at his desk.
    20 per min - that's one site every 3 seconds for 8 hours solid! Can you click on links that fast? Can you click on links one handed that fast? .

    This sounds like there was a particularly nasty virus that was doing the work. I mean how brain dead do you have to be not to clear the browser history if you are spending 8 hours plus every day surfing for porn non-stop?

    Re: things people do while at work.

    There's no way that's actually pages per day. Most likely "connections" aka hits, go to 1 page, 1 connection, get 20 images, 20 connections, so you end up with 21 connections when you've only been to one page...

    So divide 10,000 by I don't know 100 and maybe you'll actually get a real figure as to how many pages he viewed...

    The web monitoring stuff we uses counts "connections" not pages... so it always looks worse than it actually is.
