You could set it up so every site is restricted in Internet Options,
then add the allowed sites, then change the registry so they can't
access Internet Options. They won't have access to the folder options
either looking at this chunk of vbs script:
http://www.dougknox.com/xp/scripts/xp_fix_internetoptions.vbs

then you can restrict access to the registry itself:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q246261/ (remote access) or:

Another way out would be to use something like Net Nanny:
http://www.netnanny.com/products/net_nanny_5/features.html
near the bottom of the page: "The ability to "whitelist" certain web
sites so that only those sites, and no others, may be visited or
viewed".


cheers,
