You could look at install virus checking anti spyware, or simply install desktop protector from iss or integrety or

Hi all - I have users that want to access the network from home.  Now
their home
machines are probably full of viruses, keyloggers, porn, spyware - who
knows.

Instead of havbing them bring in their machines to the office where I
clean
them, I would like to implment some kind of appliance.


Look into an SSL VPN appliance such as a Juniper Neoteris. They can
proxy your VPN traffic into the network, such as RDP. This should make
it very difficult for malware to get in, as you can restrict users to
just a set of IP addresses and ports.
