You can disable net send by;

Opening control panel - administrator tools -
services

Locate the messenger service and stop it. Set its startup option to disable or manual. This will prevent reception of messages using net send.

To stop the use of the net.exe, try moving it to another folder. I can not see it causing any problems, if it does then return it back to the system32 folder

Hope this helps
