A 32-year-old Dutch civil servant has crashed his division's computer network by downloading too much porn.

The 20-computer network had been running slowly for several weeks, employees told the Dutch press. When the system ground to a complete halt the helpdesk identified the saucy source of bottleneck.

The employee, who is employed at the Dutch National Archive in Maastricht, now faces the sack.
