      With Internet Explorer open, go to Tools, Internet Options, Security tab, Custom Level….scroll down to Downloads and tick the disable button. Then OK, Apply, OK. It is a basic fix.

      You could install a firewall on each system and configure it to not allow downloads. Otherwise, you should use the earlier commentor’s advice.

      But frankly, you need either ISA or a firewall to avoid these issues.
