As far as I can tell there has never been an exemption for young offenders in pornography laws.

In the UK is possession and arrest only proved by actually finding the material on the persons computer, or can records/logs from things like the gnutella network be used to convict entirely by themselves?

Look up some recent cases. I don't think any lawyers from the UK hang out here. ;]

As a UK resident you should be aware of the following case:

BBC NEWS | England | Kent | Langham sentenced over child porn

PS. If you want answers to questions only a solicitor can answer then ask a solicitor.

I dont think he was using any p2p software, he paid for it and he was found in possession and used "research" as an excuse, doesnt really wash does it

they can't be downloaded right, even if there are search results with KP vids they dont start downloading! so there's no problem at all!
i also possess a got damn KP vid, i downloaded a [edit] and its a got damn kiddy PPPPPPRRRN!!!!!
and now i cant download any vid that has a [edit] results!

You have completely missed the point, he was not charged with downloading KP he was charged with possession of KP.

British law doesn't ask how you get KP its main tenet is that you possess it.

Thanks Bob, and do you know if this "possession" can be proved from possible accidental sharing or must it be found in the physical form on the persons computer, as many people in this thread have evidently accidentally come across this stuff with partial download sharing enabled and sharing their download folder before they could delete it.

I ask this because I dont remember anyone who has ever been arrested who wasnt found with this stuff on their computer (US cases as well)
