    Uninstall file sharing servers...

    I don't use Ubuntu, but you can simply uninstall samba and nfs servers... this will disable completely file sharing... even if you GUI say different... otherwise configure your samba server to don't export any share... you can read many how-to and tutorials, or use some nice GUI like the control-center of KDE, swat... very accurate...

    However it's very strange that your installation will share your files by default...
    When using Windows, have you ever told "Ehi... do your business?"
