This would be how you would disable the action as a group policy:

You'll want to enable the administrator account before doing this however, so that you are able to turn it back on again (there's a difference between an elevated account with administrative privileges, and the user account within the OS.
To do so, use the follow commands:
net user administrator /active:yes
net user administrator password *
The second command will then prompt you to set a password.

By default, this group policy would apply to everyone but the system\administrator account (hence why it would be a good idea to enable that before applying the policy.
You can also target the group policy to specific users or user groups, see http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/151415-group-policy-apply-specific-user-group.html for more details.
