When "group policy" is envolved, think "gpedit".
Start -> Run -> "gpedit.msc"

There's a lot of settings that may affect System Restore, but I'd look
here:

Local Computer Policy -> Administrative Templates -> System Restore ->
Turn off System Restore.

HTH,
John

Make that:
Local Computer Policy -> Administrative Templates ->
System -> System Restore -> Turn off System Restore
