If you're looking for specific rules, you can use the index function - i.e. 
something like
         if (index($report, 'PORN_4') != -1)
My understanding is that this is more efficient than a RE - but of course 
if there were rules with names like "NOT_PORN_4" (I don't think there are) 
it would still trigger.
