Usually when your phone is flashed to Boost or Metro, etc, they have to root to accomplish this.

Do me a favor, pull the battery out then put it back in. Now hold the volume down button, then press and hold the power button simultaneously until a little white screen appears with Andy riding a skateboard. This is called hboot or the bootloader. :)

If you would please post back with what you see on this screen we'll be able to tell if you are still rooted. ;)

More than likely they didn't unroot the phone.

Check out this thread for more details on Boost flashed evo's:

I don't think flashing another rom will hurt, but I'm not 100% sure. The thread I linked above will have a ton of info for you, and as always, post up a question in that thread. The Boost flashed rooters will be able to steer you to the answers. :)
