Hi,
There doesn't seem to be an easy way to impliment this exclusively using
Group Policy. Some research indicates this is best done using a firewall
solution, or third party program. However, Windows XP SP2 does provide for such
blocking.
A round-about-way could be to use the content advisor to restrict internet
access to sites in the approved range. Some resource on that can be found here:
--
Q: Which group policies allow control over which sites a user can access? Is
there a way to block all but certain sites?
A:You can do this by setting Approved Sites through Content Advisor by importing
the Content Ratings settings in User Configuration\Internet Explorer
Maintenance\Security and adding a list of approved sites.

You mentioned your experience with Group Policy. You may therefore find the
following instructions adaptable to what you wish you accomplish. In this
instance, the goal is enabling the content advisor for a single user. However,
as mentioned above, you should be able to configure this to a specific set of
websites.

(Hint - you may find it easier to go straight to the answer).

If you have any more questions or comments, do not hesitate to ask. However, I
would suggest you try the following newsgroup, as it is directly concerned with
group policy. They are significantly better equipted to help you :-) :

(Scroll down and select the appropriate forum for your product).
If you have any questions or comments, do not hesitate to ask,
Best regards,
