The fast way:
Change your Intranet site to run on a different TCP port, and make sure that your firewall does NOT allow external access to that new port.
So, go to the Properties of your Intranet site.
On the General tab, there is a PORT number. Change that port to something different (81) and save the changes.

Then, instruct your users to go to the Intranet web site using the port. So, if your Intranet site was at http://10.1.1.10
you would tell your users to now go to:
http://10.1.1.10:81

The : followed by the port number is how you make web browsers go to another port at that IP address.

hope this helps
