Well, for starters, to put it bluntly, your network admins need to get a
clue if they didn't give you a security checklist for your home computer.
YOU don't think it is odd that they didn't make sure you have anti-virus?

Second, I don't know about you, but a LOT of people legitimately use the
Internet for work as well.  My point is, there are plenty of valid ways to
secure a network without breaking routing in a half assed manner that can be
easily overrided anyway.
