I guess it depends how much you want to defy your company's 
policies.  Doing all that makes it pretty clear that you are going 
out of your way to beat the system.  Is it really worth risking your 
job, or even just pissing off your management so you can run 
defrag?  Doesn't seem worth it to me.  Now if you could beat the porn 
filter on the internet, maybe that would be worth it.  :-)
