Hi!
right-click on Network Neighborhood and choose
Properties. Find the network card (labeled Local Area
Connection by default), right-click on it, and select
Properties. Uncheck File and Printer Sharing for
Microsoft Networks. Repeat for additional network
adapters.

You don't. Unlike XP Professional, simple file sharing is the
only choice in Home.

Unless you go into safe mode, logon as administrator, in which case all
sorts of things are possible (albeit a PITA).
 
This doesn't disable simple file sharing. It just enables the Security tab.
Your security model is still simple (so the settings on the Security tab are
ineffective over the network).
