You will need to create a software restriction using group policy editor to disable it.

If you don't use any of those features, you can get rid of Ctfmon by going into Add/Remove programs, click the Change button for the MS Office entry, select add/remove components, then under Office Shared Features, set
Alternative User Input to
Not Available. If you have other MS Office products that are installed seperately, e.g. Frontpage, you'll need to do the same with them as well.
