Give them only USER level permissions. Set the browser Home page to the site you want them to see.

Then you can use policies to restrict the browser, and they can't install additional software.

See User Configuration | Windows Settings | Internet Explorer Maintenance

Also, User Configuration | Administrative Templates | Windows Components | Internet Explorer

And User Configuration | Administrative Templates | System | Run only allowed Windows applications
