Log on as Administrator on you pc. Go to Start > Run > gpedit.msc

  • Group Policy Editor. Then navigate to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > System.
  • Prevent access to registry editing tools, select either Disabled or Not Configured.
  • Now close the Group Policy Editor and restart your PC.

But remember that the user can just bring his own tools which don't check for this. – grawity Feb 22 '10 at 12:27
