I actually sat down and had a talk with the admin and he said that on average he spends less time on the network than he does getting rid of spyware and adware. I noticed that in my homec class(comp. class fell throuh ) He spent 3 days cleaning the computers up and when I checked on one a day later with adaware just to see, it was full again. It's an ongoing problem that we really need to address and I think if more students were aware and able to help ease his job it would be great. This even might be some applicable job experience also so that may help with the board . Thanks for the info so far I have printed the posts and am sarting to keep a file to give theto the school board. Cheers!
