Security Reommendation: We recommend that you disable File and Print sharing with the TCP/IP protocol. If you take this precaution then your files or printers cannot be misused by people on the Internet. If you require File and Print sharing on your local network, we recommend you install the NetBEUI protocol and enable File and Print sharing on that protocol instead.

Step 1. Select the Bindings tab.
Step 2. If File and Printer sharing is present in this box we recommend that you uncheck this option.
