There is no way to do that that I know of, but any home router with a
firewall should prevent net send messages from getting to the computer...
Out of interest, why use Net Send to send important messages? Does e-mail
not work? I'd argue that it isn't widely used anymore. On my fresh build
of XP Pro with SP2, it is disabled by default.
