Create a list of the authorized (whitelist) applications and compare each of the applications installed on a system to the whitelist.  There is a method in the Win32_Product class in WMI called Uninstall() that you can call to remove anything that you want to remove.

Of course if your users were not Administrators you wouldn't be having this problem since then they would not be able to install software, but that's not helping you now!
