Block all incoming access and disable "File/Printer" sharing. 2) Add a separate router. Makes this PC part of a second "LAN" network and remaining PC would not be able to access it.

Uncheck "File and Printer Sharing" check box in Windows firewall Exception or enable "Don't allow exceptions".

One PC have access to that server(probably some management software installed) for monitoring conversations periodically. Is there way protect or scramble internet traffic between one of the rest PCs and WAN? Or not possible, and each packet can be read by that server? |
