If it were sandboxed, that's shouldn't be something it's possible for managed administrators to disable.



It definitely is sandboxed. I think the concern is that kids will get off task with it by installing games and stuff.

Yes but that's a decision for the administrators, they may well not want portscans etc happening on their network.
