If it's actually Vim rather than Vi, you can allow them to only use
restricted mode:

-Z		Restricted mode.  All commands that make use of an external
		shell are disabled.  This includes suspending with CTRL-Z,
		":sh", filtering, the system() function, backtick expansion,
		etc.


If it is really Vi, there's one more reason to upgrade.
