Maybe a problem with student supervision??? We don't allow any students access to computers without supervision. If there is a problem, the teacher is also responsible. Our principals do a good job with that. It seems like sometimes we forget the simple things. Manson Northwest Webster-Home of the Cougars! Brad Kruse ("`-''-/").___..--''"`-._ Tech.

>>> "JON W HUESER" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 12/8/2006 1:51 PM >>> We ran into a problem with students bringing in CD's and USB drives and running programs like TIBIA on them. Lightspeed would allow us to kill exe files on those drives, but then the students changed the name of the file so Lightspeed doesn't see it as a exe file. right now to solve the problem we have killed USB, CD and floppies. We are trying to work with lightspeed to solve this issue and I have only a couple of machines that I can see from my desk that I haven't killed the floppy, usb or cd on. Not the best solution but we are working on it. Thanks, Jon W. Hueser Assistant Principal Curriculum/Technology Director East Greene Comm. Schools 405 12th Str.
