little off topic: Am I an open relay?

[Quintin Giesbrecht]

I am an IT in a school division, and we run deepfreeze on any computer
that students use.  It has saved us weeks and months of work.

Of course, the staff machines are not locked down....oh well, can't have
it all :(

I know what you mean.
There is one product i've been looking at and after this incident, 
strongly considering using. Two of their products I like. Here is the 
website:

The two that would help us and let us keep the hair we have are:

DeepFreeze:
http://www.faronics.com/html/deepfreeze.asp

AntiExec:
http://www.faronics.com/html/AntiExec.asp

I may just pony up the money and buy DeepFreeze.

Hope this helps.
