Another good reason to NEVER USE THE INSTALLED OS. 

ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS wipe the drive and install your own OS from known
good media.

But, hey! It's for windoze (l)users so it must not be a critical
machine.

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you
gain at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his
own tail. It won't fatten the dog.
