Yea, walk up to him, escort him to the door while all accounts are being 
locked. Don't even let him stop to get his things. Allow him to come back on 
Saturday and have security box his things up and let him get them at the 
security desk. Have him give you the passwors and if he refuses, do what you 
can to protect yourself. Make SURE he does not have access from a modem or 
access point. If you are so totally compromised that you have no clue how 
many holes he may have, you better hire a good security expert first. :)
