rules not being matched...

I have a couple of quick questions, I am trying to deploy snort for a small office and the owners would like to be notified if their employees are browsing porn as they have had problems with this in the past. I tried enabling the porn.rules line that is commented out by default in the snort.conf file and restarted snort afterwards, however browsing porn does not generate any alerts. Other alerts are happening, so I know that my snort install is working properly. My question is where are the rules in this file looking for the strings? In the actual http content or in headers, urls, etc?
