These are the sorts of comments made by those who have not had to deal with
security people. :-) It doesn't matter that dangerous software could get
into the computers any number of ways besides the Internet. The security
bozos decided that the answer is "No" when it comes to downloading software
but "Yes" when its loaded from a CD. Hence, if Larry doesn't want to get
fired, he brings the software in on a CD. It doesn't have to make sense - it
Security. :-)
