I would think that our IT guys would be throwing up firewalls right now.

Given the likely vector of attack, the best thing that anyone can do is disable the "autoplay" functionality in Windows XP. That's what runs a program automatically when you plug in a USB stick (or even put in a CD/DVD).

There's a PowerToy on Microsoft's website called TweakUI that does exactly that.
