You need to apply the policy to specific user. You need to be really careful because you can apply a policy Domain wide that you don't want.

So first you need to spend sometime at the Microsoft Technet GPO page.

Second links talk about how to hide the control panel.

Good Luck...Please really read up GPOs are VERY powerful and can cause serious problems if used wrong.
