Software to control usb access

I need help in finding a usb access control software , we are having a windows 2003 network with 400 clients and we have enabled usb access control through Group policy in AD ,but that is not sufficient since users disconnect the network cable and use local logins to access usb drives ,we cannot disable the usb in the client machines by changing the registry settings since most of the systems are not physically reachable and my management has decided to use some software to control the usb access and which holds its lock even when the system is disconnected from the network.

please suggest some reliable software ...

thanks in advance

what about the product "Device Lock".Any one tried this in their AD,waiting for other experts suggestion.

It seems like you just want to keep people from using usb drives on your computer. You can simply disable usb mass storage in device manager.
