several ways of doing this depending on your knowledge of computers, power toys like tweak ui are easy to use if you are not comfortable with regedits and manual settings. can download the powertoys here.

Here's another idea. Go into your internet Security options and disable 'File Download'. Then, disable access to the Security tab as explained here:

Would that apply to all user profiles, or just the one that you do it while using? I have a brother who downloads virsuses to my computer and I want to make it so his user profile can't download anything. I already have him on limited access, but while he can't install programs he can still download. If I could disable his internet file downloading, but keep mine enabled that would be great!
