DISABLING NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NetBT) [Ports 137 138]

I'm using Windows 2000 (SP5), and connected to the
Internet via an ADSL service ('ADSL' VPN dialer was
built via MS 'Add New Connection' wizard).
(ADSL Modem is stand alone Alcatel STHome)
 
I have tried the following methods (listed below) -
in order to close Ports 137 138 139, and yet each time a connection is established via 'ADSL' DIALER! - they  keep re-open again! and stay open until 'ADSL' dialer
is disconnected!.

Here are the measured I took to CLOSE these ports:
(a) The following 2 network components were
    completely un-installed !
    _Client for Microsoft Networks  
    _File and Printer Sharing for MS Networks
 
(b) The 'NetBIOS over TCP/IP' option [found
    on 'network adapter' in the 'Network and Dial-up  
    Connection' was disabled (un-checked) for the
    'Local Area Connection' "object"

(c) 'TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper Service' was *DISABLED*

--------------------
Please notice that the 'NetBIOS over TCP/IP' option 'dialog' (that appeared on 'network adapter' in the 'Network and Dial-up, was *NOT* available for the 'ADSL' dialer properties! -> thus, disabling the 'NetBIOS over TCP/IP' for the 'ADSL' dialer was not possible!

What is even stranger is that ipconfig /all shows that
'NetBIOS over TCP/IP' is closed (see below) whereas
Netstat -an show that these ports are clearly open (see blow)

I suspect it has something to do with the 'ADSL' dialer
(built via MS 'Add New Connection' wizard) - because
these ports are closed -> until 'ADSL' dialer is used
and establishes a VPN connection, the moment that happens - they re-apear.

Can you PLEASE help me SHUT DOWN those 3 annoying NetBT ports please ?
