There are restore programs and devices. Our system started using the Centurion Guard. It is a hardware device that is plugged onto a floppy cable. The centurion uses a partition on the hard drive to save any changes/files the user creates. Then once the machine is rebooted the changes and files are gone. Pretty nice, but not cheap. Fortres sells some software that does the same thing. I have not tried the software but I was the "tester" here for the Centurion. It blocked a format c: and Fdisk. Pretty impressive.
