How To Restrict Utility Manager Access via AD

[Matt H]

I administer an office environment with a strict lockdown
policy on all agent desktops.

I have discovered a hole in the lockdown, where an agent
can access Utility Manager (Windows Key + U) and from
there access IE.

I've tried adding the.exe’s for the various parts of
Utility Manager to a 'Do not run Specified' policy but
they still run.

Any help with this would be appreciated
