How about using the app ieblock? It was mentioned here some time ago and I used 
it with great success at my last job. You should be able to find it here:

IE, while it has zone control, is not really designed for what you want to do.  
that's why firewall's and proxy's were invented ;)
 
the problem you have is that you can't make any exceptions based on client IP 
because the client IP will always be the terminal server.  You could, I 
suppose, do some fancy scripting that populates the restricted sites 
dynamically when a user logs in.  Otherwise, group policy own't help you.  Your 
best bet would be the either the scripting solution or possibly a 3rd party 
solution (not sure which though since everything depends on client iP).

        I wish it was that simple.  It's not about Web browsing.  It's about 
retricting which sites they can access that are internal when the users are 
external. 
         
        We want to share servers between internal and external users. We want 
the internal users to be able to access all sites includng our internal web 
based apps.  When the same user is external say in a web cafe we do not want 
them to be able to access our internal web sites. 
         
        We can't do it via group membership so we must do via IP....
         
        We curently split our servers so internal access is to one set and 
external is to another set with IE completly disabled.
         
        We could achive this by moving our servers into a DMZ and applting 
firewall restrictions but then we have to open up lots of ports in DMZ for 
Citrix server to work with our the management stuff.  Less than ideal.  
         
        Hoping we can use some form of IP restiction with IE blocking to achive 
this.  Playing with PAC files but struggling.
         
        I get the feeling I am missing something really simple.....
         
        PS we are on XP FRE3 and hopefully moving to PS4 laster this year

                Citrix policies can be applied by IP no problem.
                 
                IE browsing would be best controlled through your 
firewall...hint hint

                                I'd like to switch on client drive mapping but 
only for some of our external users (using WI3.0/CSG2.0). The idea being that 
we trust some external sites  but not all (e.g., web café would not be 
trusted). 

                                We thought we could do this via IP address, has 
anyone done this sort of thing before and could pass on advice? 

                                Thanks
