Is it possible to exclude one computer on a network from file sharing?

I'm a folder with 8 rigs. D-link DI-624 wireless router. I have file sharing turned on so I can monitor all my rigs.

I would like to add a computer to have access to the internet, but not have access to the other 8 computers.

Is this possible with windoz XP?
 
I think ports 137, 138, and 139 are the file and print sharing ports. You'll just have to make a rule on your routers firewall to deny all traffic on those ports, from that one computer.

EDIT: port 3614 could also be used for file and print sharing.
