You can just delete the folder "games" and said user will be out of luck.

Funny thing about the games in windows 2000 - they're in the System32 directory and if you delete them, they pop back in. What I do is remove all permissions to the executables.
If you've got an especially large environment that would prohibit going to each machine to do this (or if you just like your desk like me), you could copy new versions down with the login script using xcopy with the /o switch to transfer ownership as well. Specify /y to automatically overwrite and /q to not display file names being copied. Marc Creviere
