can I ask for some details about how the usb drives are ruining computers? m=
ight help the list come up with a solution. 
 
we also have restrictions on .exe files and run a program called Deep Freeze=
 whereby each PC reverts to a "frozen" image when it is restarted regardless=
 of what changes are made to it by student or teacher.

	Hello all,
	 
	Our network manager has encountered a number of problems with student memor=
y sticks ruining computers. He wants to ban memory sticks. I was wondering i=
f any list members had any policy relevant to this issue.
	 
	Thanks
