It stands for "Not Safe For Work", and usually refers to "inappropriate" websites that could get you in trouble if you viewed them at work.

Hope that helps!
EDIT: Other variations include Not Suitable For Work, as well as NWS (Not Work-Safe).

Not safe for work (NSFW), not worksafe (NWS), not schoolsafe (NSS) or not suitable for school or work (NSSW) is Internet slang or shorthand. Typically, the NSFW tag is used on interactive discussion areas (such as internet forums, blogs, and community websites) to mark URLs or hyperlinks that may be sexually explicit or includes audio that contains profanity, so that the reader can avoid content that may be objectionable. NSFW has particular relevance for individuals making personal use of the Internet at workplaces or schoolplaces that have policies prohibiting access, even inadvertently, of sexually explicit images. Companies and universities frequently adopt such policies because they regard the presence of sexually explicit images as a misuse of company property (or education resources) and, potentially, a violation of sexual harassment policy.
