Define "access internet".....

Do you mean *all* protocols?  So, you want to stop a 5th system from browsing, 
ftp,
ssh, ntp, pop, imap, etc?  So, if A, B, C, and D are using these 
protocols...which
can happen without direct user input (pop/imap polls, facebook and rss feed 
updates,
etc.)  you want to block E for an indeterminate amount of time?

Seriously?

I think you need to state the problem you are trying to solve....not ask for a
solution which really sounds wrong headed.

Is he trying to establish some traffic management or a means of assuring
at least one person is bored enough that she'll take care of the company's
business while the men are streaming their porn?
