Group Policy to disable games???

[sham14]

I know it is strange request and more of a management problem than an IT problem but i have been asked to stop certain people from being able to play solitaire (how cruel can one be!). Does anyone know how i can do this by group policy or any other good way would be appreciated. I am using win2k server with win2k client machines.

Thanks in advance.

Under User \ Admin Templates \ System
Expand system folder
Enable Don't run specified windows applications and then just type in the file name of the program.
