I would like to add some useful information to this thread.
1. If you happen across suspected cp please report this to ASACP.
Here is the link:
http://www.asacp.org/index.php?content=report
You can also report suspected cp to these hotlines:
NCMEC -
http://www.missingkids.com
InHope -
http://www.inhope.org
CyberTip -
http://www.cybertip.ca
ASACP sends it's reports to the above hotlines as well as others... and directly to relevant LE contacts.
2. It is never a good idea to post threads that discuss suspected cp activity to open boards. This can have negative consequences and can even potentially impact an investigation that may already be in progress. The best course of action is to always report the suspected activity to ASACP and /or one or more of the hotlines above. Your report will be investigated and action will be taken if the report is valid.
3. When reporting suspected cp it is important to know what to do and what not to do in order to protect yourself from inadvertently breaking any laws.
- do not download / save content (images/video)
- do not transmit content
- do not re-visit a suspected site to make note of information missed when you first found it...even for the purpose of reporting.
Report the URL(s) along with any other information you notice.
Please see this PSA for more information...

By taking the above steps you will ensure that your report(s) gets the most expedient attention by those that can act upon it and you will be protecting yourself from potential legal pitfalls.
