i have locked down a client using policy editor for Windows 7. and i want to restrict a user to one website only via a firefox shortcut on the desktop and to restrict their access to the local system drive which is currently vulnerable using the navigation bar. i know how to right click and rmeove but the user can put this back himself quiet easily and then browse anywhere on the local machine or web.

Even then it won't work.
If the location bar is hidden then you can use Ctrl+L to bring up a pop-up with a location bar.

You would probably need to run Firefox in a sandbox that doesn't allow access to the local file system to get that working properly.
