If Thomas's brilliant suggestion re USB blocking doesn't work, I would 
imagine that the brighter of your students will eventually defeat whatever 
software solution you put in place. They'll doubtless see it as a 
challenge. (A good motivation tool perhaps!)

You should be proud that your teaching efforts are of a high enough caliber 
that your students do have this ability.

Taking Thomas's thought a step further, could you physically remove all the 
USB ports altogether? (Of course, this may not be practical if there are 
printers or other USB hardware installed. Maybe with a bit of ingenuity 
these could be hardwired into the system).
