One thing you can try....
TOAD includes a module name... so select from v$session where module = 'T.O.A.D.'
It will give you a list of users... and you could probably create a DBMS_JOB to go around and kill any user with module 'T.O.A.D' who did not have DBA priv's. It would be quite intensive to run on your machines... but I think it would get the job done. I'm not sure what other apps you have... maybe they also have a module associated with them.

Hi Ken,
AFAIR you can limit connections via SQL*+ not sure though
it'll work for TOAD and other 3d party products.
Try to find pubbl.sql(?) (sorry don't remember the exact name).
It's one of the standart scripts you're supposed to run while
db creation. It creates a couple of profile tables and it's available in 7.x 8.x
HTH,
