While it is entirely possible for spyware to cause the problem, one would think that the school would have proper measures in place to prevent this sort of thing.

Many schools utilize a content filtering system, and it works. Furthermore, any business that is running computers without any type of malware protection is just stupid.

They had a content filtering system, but it had expired. Given that, is it any wonder that they wouldn't have measures in place to prevent spyware infestations?

You haven't been to many schools, have you? Many have cover-all software, but the computers are individually so ill-maintained and setup, it renders the protection moot. Many districts treat computers akin to toasters - just fill the order and forget it.

For example, using a condom properly helps prevent STDs. Simply having one, however, won't help much if they tear it open with their teeth and ruin it.
