Can't this be accomplished by disabling the run command?

Use your hosts file to place an IP address that you chose instead of the
correct IP. For example games.zone.com you could place in the host file
to 127.0.0.1 or if you want to get fancy redirect to your own web server
and have a page on your server that says "Access denied".
If you want to allow them to all websites but now allow them to the
local drive letters you can block this with a policy. I have forgotten
what policy I have that blocks this but when I place a UNC path in the
address bar I get a message "Access to the resource M:\ has been
disallowed". I am running the IEAK policies.

I will be publishing specific Web sites via Kiosk Mode but I don't want
users to be able to browse from the Windows Explorer. I was hoping there
was some DLL required or something that I could block individually.

you could force in a non-existent proxy server address in the settings.
