AFAIK winguard only offers security for a local PC.. to secure a network, you will surely require to setup a firewall.

for point 2 and 3, you will have to disable admin access from all users in the network. In the limited access mode, you can decide how many privilages a user has.

1. you can use Squid Proxy if you have linux on server. there are also free software for win too, i think you will find that in my very old post [sorry, i am feeling very lazy :-D]
2 & 3.
A. create a user policy [if you are using domain login]
B. if no domain login, remove administrative rights from user accounts to disable installation. for pen drive restriction, you can do that from registry.
