Hello Allen,

To "semi-pernamently" disable network sharing:

Download this file, run it and follow the steps:
http://go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9645380

After that disable service called Server. How to do it:
Click Start, Right-click Computer -> Manage.
After window opens go: Services and applications -> Services.
Scroll down and find Server service.
Right-click it -> Properties.
Change Startup type to Disable -> Stop service -> OK.

You can reenable this service by changing Start type to Automatic.

Hope it will help. Reply.
