You can't remove the administrative shares. What you can do is only have one 
local account administrator and keep the password secret. 
The computer can't be a part of a domain and do this. It has to be setup in 
only a workgroup and use only local security. If you are in a domain, then 
anyone who has administrator security will have access to your NT workstation 
administrative shares. You don't have to be a part of a domain to have access 
to domain resources.
