Any chance you would be willing to share your webpage to create the computer account?

I have given a group (Join Computers to the Domain group) the rights to join computers to the domain through the Default Domain policy. Only this group has rights to join computers to the domain. I have created a web page that creates a computer account (it checks first to make sure the computer account does not exist) base upon department specific input from the user. Once the account is created the user names his computer the same as the computer account and joins the domain. The problem I am having is that some of the user that are members of the Join Computers to the Domain group are not using the web page. They are using "My network place", advanced, network identification.....ect to join the domain. This creates a computer account in the computer container. When this happens I get a computer account showing up in the computer container that I do not know what department it belongs to. My solution (that does not work) was to remove all rights (including System rights) to the computer container. I figured without rights they would not be able to create the computer accounts. This did not work so I denied the ability to create all child objects for the Join computers group in the Computers Container. This did not work so I denied the right for Everyone. Also did not work. Any ideas on how to prevent all users from creating computer objects in the computers container?
