Configure a "dummy" proxy (like 127.0.0.1) for your published IE
and prevent users from changing the Internet options using GPO.

I don't want it to remove the Menu bar or address bar, just stop it from
allowing them to go from Files stuff to web browsing.

Here's a question for anyone. We publish Windows Explorer pointing to the
User's Network Home drive H:. This works quite well but something occurred
to me that I need help with. Once Explorer is open any User can enter a URL
in the address bar and they can browse via the Explorer Window. Does any
know of a way to block this behavior?
