Here in the wild wild West, USB's run amuck on the network. Thanks to Sansa
drives preloading skype (blocked at the router) and other programs running
(I think it's called U3), it's tempting to find a sale on super glue and
visit all 170 tablets. 
        I really don't have an answer, Active Directory could work in some
cases, but that interferes with the concept of ubiquitous computing. 
        We've been slowly beefing up the internal reporting with features in
snort and other open source material, but haven't discovered the cure.

Tony,
I use Faronics anti-executable on some of our pc's. It lets them use the 
usb for their data files but won't let them run any exe programs from 
thumb drive.
