Disable File and Printer Sharing (Windows 9x and NT)
When 'File and printer sharing...' is installed it allows users to make
services avilable to other users on a network, this functionality can
be disabled by changing this setting.

1. Using Regedit fins the key below, if it doesn't already exist,
create it.

2. Create two new DWORD values of 'NoFileSharing' and 'NoPrintSharing'.

3. Modify the values of 'NoFileSharing' and 'NoPrintSharing' to either
'1' sharing disabled, or '0' sharing enabled. Both setting do not
have to be the same, it is possible to have one disabled and the
other enabled.

4. Exit Regedit and reboot.

Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Policies\Network]
