Can AD push information down to the IE Content Advisor? It would be
nice to implement this from AD on an as needed basis...

If there are a multitude of sites and clients, then yes, something like
ISA might be the way to go.  If you are talking about one site on a
given client, or even account/profile, keep it simple and cheap and use
the content advisor.  

I've seen the content advisor used at a previous job where if a user
hadn't activated their account already, they would log in with the
"newuser" account and they were restricted to only be able to run IE and
the content advisor only allowed them to go to the account activate
site.  In this situation, something like ISA is overkill.  Heck, in this
case the cost and overhead of ISA probably would have killed the
project.
