If you want to restrict users access to the Internet the best solution is to
use a proxy server or firewall. However, a Group Policy solution would be to
use a GPO to assign all computers a proxy server address of 127.0.0.1. This
way, when a client tries to get to the Internet they will try to use
themselves as a proxy so it wont work.
Do not include your user accounts in the local administrators group. Norton
updates will still work and I am guessing Windows Update also works when the
user is not an admin but this could be easily checked.
