They are not alone. There's a company I know of but won't name here
that found a _keylogger_ on their primary accountant's desktop. (I
know some of their IT people personally.) Worse, they apparently
didn't learn anything - the idiots are _still_ running Windows on their
internal machines. (I don't usually call people I know even
peripherally "idiots", but in this case I think it's warranted.)
