Two things come to mind off the top of my head, but I use Win98 rather
than Win95, so there may be small differences.
First, you could create a shortcut to the TweakUI applet, naming and
storing that shortcut in such a way as to hide it from your users. Then,
from the Control Panel tab within TweakUI, deselect TweakUI so that it
no longer appears when you open the Control Panel. If YOU need to access
TweakUI, you have the shortcut, which they hopefully won't discover.
Alternatively, you could probably use the Policy Editor, (PolEdit, which
should be on the Win95 CD), to set the appropriate restrictions. I know
one of PolEdit's options is to block ALL access to the Control Panel,
but there's a lot of flexibility, as well.
Hope this gets you started.
