Cleaning out your own computer with a large number of porn or porn-related items, can be
undertaken using one of many specially designed cleaning applications that are now
available online. Nearly all of these porn cleaner programs are
designed to cleanup pornographic files from the system drives and bring back disk
performance. Adult picture detection and cleaning products are designed to quickly
clean porn and clean up all of the unwanted porn cached in your hard drive
automatically. These software products usually run statistical analysis, RealMedia
file video analysis, disk drive cleanup plus even more checks.
Checking image files is a key step when analyzing your file system, to find risque
or other unwanted material. Adult material is frequently in image form, and occasionally
the downloaders of this type of content make a copy of the files in a hard disk directory
as a photo album. So it is a core requisite for porn cleanup software to be able
to tell apart adult images and other images, and present them in the most meaningful
way for the operator of the software to work further with. This requires certain
tests to find out if adult material is present. One suspicious factor is checking
levels of skin colours in the image. Having skin colors, however, is hardly conclusive
since sunsets and portraits can have colors that approximate skin. If skin color
is detected in the file, various other test procedures should be executed to test
the images, to screen the inappropriate materials from everyday images; including
color evaluation, folder and file collation, and many more. The inappropriate materials
are sorted in order and shown as thumbs for the user to act on.
