I'm not one for user restrictions but in that case, it's a good idea. Leaving a pen drive or a CD with a trojan on it, somewhere where it can be found is a new way to compromise a system. Someone will be sure to find it and plug it in to a workstation. It's called a 'road apple'. The exploit doesn't go to the user, the user comes to the exploit.
