pop in a boot disk, reboot. you win. it really is that simple.

Unfortunately I don't recall this being my meaning at all. The misconception by many administrators is that this IS a security product when in fact it's far from it. A lot of admins forego good security practices because the changes made to the system will be wiped in the morning. Users are given administrative rights on the computer and an unfortunate side effect of this, is that someone could own a network in 3 minutes, bypassing the "deepfreeze is a security product" mindset and taking over, even if it's only until the next day.
