    So what? I can get 20mbit down 512k up on ADSL2+. What's the joke on that? It's not better because it's cable or DSL. Cable is big in the US, down here DSL is the king.

    Oh -- and I live in the "third world" http://productos.arnet.com.ar/20m_zona1.php . Also, I currently get 250KB/sec steady on BT (2.5M down / 256k up).

    First of all, I will say that Deep Freeze is definitely a solid solution...when it's not hacked. The old Win98SE boxes at my high school that used Deep Freeze could be EASILYcompromised using Deep Unfreezer http://usuarios.arnet.com.ar/fliamarconato/pages/e deepunfreezer.html. According to the author of that program, it works on XP too. Since the PCs are XP boxes, I would highly suggest setting up a group policy server (either WinServer 2003 or a free Linux setup like Samba). Even better, use Linux. (No sarcasm intended). The majority of kids haven't even heard of Linux, let alone know how to use it. They'll have to figure out how to even open a web browser in Linux first before they try any screwing around.

    Deep freeze is a good program, but far from foolproof like many have mentioned. Use other security measures as well. One student gets his hand on the wrong tool (like this one http://usuarios.arnet.com.ar/fliamarconato/pages/e deepunfreezer.html ) and your deep freeze doesnt help much.

    Good luck! :)

    my school had Deep Freeze. my problem with it (as a student who knew what he was doing) was that the pre-installed software was lame. I didn't want to have to install firefox every class.... so I found a little program called Deep Unfreezer. http://usuarios.arnet.com.ar/fliamarconato/pages/e deepunfreezer.html

    it can:
    freeze
    unfreeze
    freeze after x reboots.

    needless to say my computer had mozilla and winamp on it. jealousy ensued.
    just pointing out that deep freeze isn't flawless either
