When new computers join the domain, the link to the internal web site is
automatically placed on the desktop. If I remember correctly, it also makes
http://companyweb the default IE homepage. Is there a way to prevent these
things from happening?

These are set in Group Policy, I believe, but it is far beyond me to give a
step-by-step to changing them.

Russ,
That will disable the homepage setting for IE. However, SBS 2008 also creates a link to the Internal Web Site on users' desktops. This is a separate setting that is unaffected by the group policy you referenced.
The link is added to the desktop after logging in even if it's been deleted in a previous session. Any thoughts on how to disable the policy that creates the link?
