how to disable network listening service using group policy?

There are many services listening on your network. Which one are you talking about? Note that disabling a network service will disable any programs that use it.

for example, turn off ports 137, 138 on UDP and 445 on TCP

These ports are not open by default on win 7, maybe not even on XP, just undo your own actions to open them.

These ports are open on some laptops and closed on other laptops. if I control these network listening ports using group policy, where is the best place?
windows setting-> security setting->windows firewall with advanced security
windows setting-> security setting->network list manager policies
windows setting-> security setting->network access protection
Administrative templates-->network-->netw ork connect-->windows firewall
or somewhere else?
