IE6 and Group Policies

We've been using a custom branding of IE6 created in IEAK to lock out or remove certain options from the main toolbar.
(locking out --------- File-Open, Tools Internet Options  -- ANY option related to Outlook or Outlook Express
eliminating - Favorites, Media, Mail etc)

We are moving to a W2K server (from NT4) and I am getting lazy in my old age.

Is there a way to accomplish this using JUST Group Policy or some other server-based feature 
so I dont have to go to each station?

ALSO 
I know how to use NoDrives to 'hide' drives -- but this doesn't keep users from seeing them by typing their letter.

Is there a way to make folders and drives both INVISIBLE and INACCESSIBLE
AND to modify the "SaveAs" dialogue box so that none of the left side icons appear (History, My Documents, Desktop, Favorites. 

I know this has been asked and discussed ad nauseum -- but I can't seem to find anything in the archives that addresses it directly.

And yes -- I know about Personal Web Browser -- and may be using it in the lab -- but in the reference area - I'm locked into IE.

Thanks
