In Windows Explorer go to the file (taskmgr.exe), open
Properties, go to Security, add the user you want to
restrict and click Deny next to the Full Control
permission.

Also make sure you review Michael's comments about
security, it might make more sense to run IE in kiosk mode.

If kiosk mode is not appropriate for your case then you
could further restrict the user's access to key executable
files such as explorer.exe, regedit.exe, regedt32.exe,
mmc.exe and (probably many many) other.
