e.g. I access a porn site and my computer shuts down after showing an "uplifting" message.
Edit: I'm single and don't intend on starting a romantic relationship at the moment.

Get a long term relationship where you're not alone. A woman who would turn off your computer and show you something "uplifting"[1] when you're tempted to watch porn. [1] Whatever it maybe for you. :-)
Secondly if this is a addiction then you should seek a help group. There is a AAA style meeting for everything.
Finally best of luck.

Give a close friend $1000 and tell him to keep $100 for each time you find yourself failing at your task. Of course this relies on you being truthful to yourself/friend but since it's on your initiative anyway, it might work.
No idea if this works.
My second observation is: is it really a problem? Most of the supposed porn-addicts I've known have not actually fit the definition of addiction, "pleasurable but the continuation of which becomes compulsive and interferes with ordinary responsibilities and concerns, such as work, ...". Is it really an addiction? Are you late to work because you're watching porn? Do you find you don't have time for anything else because you watch porn? I can only figure that the US's puritanical roots cause people to so frequently conflate daily porn use on the order of 15 to 30 minutes with "addiction", when it clearly will not fit the bill for addiction.

Not every lifestyle permits intimate relationships. And not everyone can just snap their fingers and "get a long term relationship".
