Take away internet options:
Make a GPO for it by going into user configuration, administrative templates, internet explorer, browser menus, and enable tools menu: disable internet options. Game over.
I find it's easiest to go into windows settings, internet explorer mainentance, connection, proxy settings, and set the proxy to 0.0.0.0. Do that in the same GPO.
Then apply it to the users or machines you want locked out, and you are good to go.

but in this situation one can use his own laptop to connect to the existing network and assigning proxy settings in his browser. is there any option to block all workgroup computers accessing the network using Active Directory authentication?

If your network is secure a network admin's credentials are required to add a PC to a domain, so a user shouldn't be able to simply plug in a private PC into the network and obtain connectivity.
