Open the file CONTROL.INI and put the following section in it:

[don't load]
snd.cpl=yes
joystick.cpl=yes

and so on for all the control panel applets you have. This will NOT prevent people from starting any control panel applet from the RUN line.....

Thanx Mac, I was looking for a solution that uses the registry, but that will do the trick.
May the Force be with you MacGyver.

Of course you can disable the run command via Registry.
