welp.... they are finally getting a taste of their own crap.
I wonder what they are doing. We use steadystate on all of our machines. Reboot the machine and everything is restored.

Maybe they should move from a PC based environment to a terminal server like system. Each reboot loads a completely new OS. I guess the only thing they could attack at that point would be memory.
