You can't.

The short of the matter is if a user is allowed to run executable code (i.e., launch programs) and can move data to the target system (flash drive, CD, email, websites, shared network drives, etc.), then they can run any program they wish within their security restrictions. Since there's no real way to create a security restriction that would hit chrome without hitting every other webbrowser (IE, Firefox, Safari, Opera, etc.), you cannot effectively do what you're asking.

You can try a number of tricks to inhibit the installation, but they are all easily circumvented.

Lot of things you can do, none are foolproof.

Google
  1. blacklist chome.exe, or its hashes (downside is you have to update all the hashes, and they can change the name.
  2. whitelist application that can run by hash/name (downside is its hard and long, and overly restrictive)
  3. dont allow any .exe files to be downloaded (curcumvent with flash drive)
  4. Also, see here

In short, this is really a generic 'how do I stop x from running', but I cant seem to find any of those on superuser.
