coLinux will show up as some small program files, and a great big linux
filesystem image file, which your IT folk won't be able to look into
(without coLinux, or real linux).  They might notice it because of it's
size, however, and ask.  The trick would be to rename it to "PornMovie.avi"
(or something more imaginative, and less suitable for a family-oriented
mailing list) - IT will spend so much time trying to figure out the right
codec that they'll leave you alone, and won't dare ask about it.
