CNC / TIG Welding Problems

It seems that the RF produced by our TIG welder interferes with our Tormach PCNC mill, causing the spindle to erroneously spin up even with the e-stop on, as wells as causing flickers on the screen attached to the computer and various random programs opening up. Obviously, this is a problem when trying to machine something. And suggestions to solve the problem? A faraday cage around the electronics box of the Tormach possibly?
