Try reading Microsoft Knowledge Base Article #314984 entitled "HOW TO: Create and Disable Administrative Shares on Windows XP". You can find it at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;Q314984

Hi everyone, Just a quick one, does anyone know how to stop the default administrative file shares in Win XP (professional edition)? One would think this would be a standard part of locking down a box, but can't find much on it for XP. You can do it through Computer Management but they'll be re-enabled at reboot, and the Win2k key of HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanManServer\Parameters\AutoShareWks doesn't seem to exist. Any ideas? Thanks, Leon
