    To do the same Go to Start menu, and type gpedit.msc in the search line and press Enter. If prompted by UAC, click on Continue. Go to User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Network\Windows Connect Now.

    On the right side, double click on Prohibit Access to Windows Connect Now wizards.Now the windows open, select Enable and click ok. Thats it..

    Now no one can access the Windows Connect Now wizards.

    Its useful but i think locking computer is the best way of prevent the system from other users.
