Okay, I know how to disable the default admin shares, but honestly how many people actually do this. I know that for my situation it would make my life much more difficult, and as long as they are set so that only admins can get into them, I don't see the security risk, I mean if someone obtains admin priviledges on your network you're pretty much hosed anyways.
