Is there a way I could block proxy server use from within an sbs 2003 environment?
Ive already configured the proxy server settings from within IE, but If I was to use proxy software I could access the internet fine.

I think i could do with blocking all HTTP access on all ports except 80.
I only use routing and remote access, no firewall.

If I dont actually have a proxy (i.e servers connect to internet via the sbs server), theres nothing I can put in there to define a proxy server is there? If i put the servers ip address in there, every webpage will reroute to the servers address.

you can disable access to the connections tab in IE via GPO this is how we have done it, infact we have disabled access to most of the IE settings.

I have already done this, but a user has installed a proxy at home and is using this (its live from IE) and not remote desktop.
He is also using a fake IP to connect to his machine at home. Its not port 80.

I would have throught on sbs there must be a way to lock down everything on http except port 80?

i would go the disipline route tbh if there are things in place to stop it and users are bypassing and find other ways to get pass.

Find out what DynamicDNS name he/she is putting in their browser in order for them to use it as a proxy.

Then, on your own internal DNS, create an entry to send all requests to that URL/IP address to something like http://drivingni.com/design/AccessDenied.jpg

I've done this before

VNC is a small open source desktop sharing application.

Google for Real VNC. Then install it on his computer. You'll need to instal the viewer (part of the main .exe which you'll download) to view his screen.

Easy
