I'd use CDs too if I were her, otherwise I wouldn't know who else was 
looking at the files or where they were getting backed up etc.  At least she 
can take the CDs home or burn them or shred them or whatever and be 100% 
sure nobody else has used them.

Anyway, I would be more concerned, as the IT dude, exactly what sort of 
files she doesn't want to have on the network.  Did you remind her that if 
anything happens to her laptop she will then lose those files forever?  And 
that she shouldn't be keeping personal data on company laptops ;-)
