Hahaha, students, haha.
Man, if they are students, you give them a real operating system and be
done with it. My university never had a virus or worm problem until
they decided to allow Windoze boxen on their network. They have
suffered ever since. People who use Windoze deserve all the pain and
suffering they can heap unto themselves.

So? Using insecure software and thus putting others at jeopardy because
of your own incompetence and negligence qualifies as reason for contract
termination. If you can't trust them to behave, don't give them
Internet access. It's that easy, really.

I did work for a University once, and I heaped a _lot_ of trouble on
people who endangered others and others' work with their negligence.

I wager I make more money in the real world of business than you.
Part of the word "babysitting" is that you _sit_. Installing virus
scanners is not sitting, it's putting a cardboard fence there. It may,
for a limited number of babies, have the same effect, but it's not the
same. If you get paid for babysitting, you JUST DO IT and don't whine
here about viruses. My son does not and will never have permission to
use Windows. That's part of a good upbringing.
