Any chance of getting a copy of the CD and the presentation slides if any?

Our Help Desk developed a 30 minute presentation that is done during summer
freshmen orientation. It's mandatory so every student has to attend. They get
a VTNET cd which contains ensures their firewall is on, set for auto patch
updates, installs AV software if needed. They're told to run the CD before
connecting to our net when they come back for fall check-in. We've just
completed our 4th year so hopefully we've cycled through the entire student
body.

Orientation seems to be the only time students listen to us :-).
