[Year 12 IPM] usb memory sticks

[Charles Clarke]

You probably have a software clash.  We had the same thing happening until we removed the Ghost client from our student PCs.  
 
Cheers

can I ask for some details about how the usb drives are ruining computers? might 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 memory sticks ruining computers. He wants to ban memory sticks. I was wondering if any list members had any policy relevant to this issue.
 
Thanks
