Porn, The Net and the Law...??

With the recent unfortunate news about Daron Brewood being linked with 
a porno racket on the Net, I have a few questions to ask concerning 
how the law stands. Is it illegal to download porn, keep it on your 
system, or upload it(from an external source) to say, your web page? 
I've only a few times come across pics I'd rather wouldn't have, and 
have deleted them from my system straight away. IMHO they weren't any 
worst than pics you would find in a mag, on the top shelf. Are there 
any other points to be aware of regarding this matter...? It was also 
said that Demon had been monitoring him for 2 years, are ISPs allowed 
to do this?

Thanks,

James
