How to limit access to Internet for users

Good morning,

We have some machines with default gateway and I'd like to remove it in
order to avoid users could access to Internet. I'd like to do it through GPO
(but in this case, I can only limit they access through Internet Explorer,
but with other programs they could) or running a login script with a command
line like "route delete 0.0.0.0".

The problem is that first solution (GPO) isn't enough complete to control
all access (they could download their e-mail with Outlook or chat with
programs like Messenger) and, by the other hand, I can't run a "route"
command because users haven't administration rights and they can't change
route table.

Is there any other way to remove gateway in machines if users are "limited
users"? I want not to go one per one machine because there are more than 50
and they are in different buildings.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Ana
