now you'll need to block access to that setting

shange this registry setting
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Int
ernet Explorer\Control Panel]
"ConnectionsTab"=dword:00000001


The above hack did not work for me-when I opened the registry editor,

AS you see there is no internet explorer under the policies tree and yes this is the tree for [hkey_current
_user]
 
log in as the user you want to disable it as

Go to:

* TCP/IP Properties
* Advanced
* Options
* TCP/IP filtering Properties
* Select Enable TCP/IP filtering (All adapters)
* Select Permit Only for all three selections (TCP, UDP, IP)
* Add only the allowed ports that are needed (leaving out port 80 for Web browser traffic)
* Click OK multiple times to close out the windows
