If you're using the built-in web server to run the CF Administrator, you
probably wouldn't want to disable it. You simply want to limit how it can be
run. Typically, in a Windows environment, I use Remote Desktop to access the
server, then run the browser from the desktop to manage the server. Also,
typically, external access to the server is limited to standard HTTP/HTTPS
ports.
