    No extra softwares are needed...

    Just right click on my computer icon and go to properties and select hardware...
    There select device management and right click and disable the usb ports that you dont wished to access...

    Geeks never die. They just go Offline.

    Do this and the USB removable disk won't work on the computer but still allowing other USB device such as keyboard, mouse and webcam to work.
