How do you remove sharing from an Excel file?

I am not aware of any sharing access for individual Excel files (if someone reading this knows how to do this with Windows, please improve the answer). File sharing permissions are for giving access to folders, not individual files. If you are not able to change the sharing permissions on the folder in which you have the Excel file stored, move the file to a folder or drive without sharing permissions. See related questions and links for information about file and folder sharing.

In a P2P file sharing application do you agree with the statement there is no notion of client and server sides of a communication session and Why?

In P2P file sharing there is no dedicated server to transfer or share files. In file sharing using email you use a client server architecture, meaning every time you send something it goes from your computer to a server and then to the computer you are sending to. In P2P file sharing it simply goes from your computer to the next. P2P is found in file distribution with Bit-Torrent and in file sharing with eMule and LimeWire.
