To hide a control panel setting you can change the file extension from *.cpl to *.hmmm. You could also assign permission on an NTFS volume and make sure the groups/users are not permitted access

alternativly (back up ya registry blah blah)

Checkout hiding Control panel items from users, going to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER

Move to: Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\NoSetFolders (REG_DWORD)
Set this value to 1 will hide the Control Panel, Printers and My Computer in Explorer and Start Menu. You would normally need to create this value as it does not exist by default.
