I wouldn't want to work in an IT department of a company where setting the policy of what is acceptable code to run on the computers I managed was any of HR's business. If your "acceptable to use programs" policy is ONLY governed by an HR policy then YOU HAVE MUCH BIGGER PROBLEMS. There ARE technological solutions to the "what code shall we allow to run on this machine" problem. Sadly there are not more and better such solutions but there are some such solutions and any corporate IT system not devised without their use (i.e. _most_ corporate It is systems) is an inadequate system...
