I tried to follow the example at:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307882

I do not see any folders under Administrative Templates other than
Search, Media Player and Windows Update. Do I need to add or import
other items? How can I do that?

Thanks

Open the Group Policy console again (Start - Run - gpedit.msc) and click
on Administrative Templates under Computer Configuration so it's
highlighted.
Click on Action at the top of the console and select Add/Remove Templates
from
the menu.
My guess is that you'll only see search, wmplayer, and wuau listed.
Click on the Add button.
In the Policy Templates dialog, hold down the Ctrl key and select conf.adm,
inetres.adm, and system.adm.
Hit the Open button.
This should restore the missing items.

On a side note, if you're not able to achieve the results you want using the
Group Policy editor you might consider using Windows SteadyState. Take a
look here for more info.
