The digital remake of the children's classic was criticised by Becta, the education technology agency, because "the use of pigs raises cultural issues".
Officials also attacked the story - called The Three Little Cowboy Builders - for stereotyping the building trade.
The comments were condemned by the computer program's creator as "a slap in the face".
It is the latest in a string of bans slapped on seemingly innocuous children's stories and nursery rhymes.
In the past, Baa Baa Black Sheep has become Baa Baa Rainbow Sheep to satisfy race relations, the Seven Dwarfs have been axed from Snow White to avoid offending the vertically challenged and the ending of Humpty Dumpty has been censored for fear of upsetting sensitive children.
