Does anyone know if there is a way to password protect the Run button on the
start menu?

I'm not sure about Password protecting it. But, there may be a GPO that
disables the Run.. button except for members of the Administrators and
certain other groups. You may want to dig a little and see if you can
find that. (I'm thinking in secpol.msc maybe).

Nah, not possible within Windows :o( You could write a C# application mind -
I'm sure that way it can be :o)
In Group Policy, you can remove it entirely however :o)

Use the administrative templates in group policy.
Same as in XP except you can get more granulare in Vista.
