I read where you could limit the user's ability to launch IE, but they
could circumvent that by d'ling FF or bring it from home....


Of course, if the user does not have privs to install . . .

Could you GPO the user into an OU that had a firewall policy that
blocked ALL ports except internal?


FW is per machine policy, not per user, and it is inbound, not
outbound. IPsec could be used to limit a machine to a restricted
set of (local) IPs if all users of that machine should be so limited.

ISA I think, blocks internet access by user names...

Got ISA??

Yep. The desired effect is usually tasked to a proxy that
gates access to the external network.
