If the machines' security is properly configured, access to the file:// protocol shouldn't be a security issue.

If you really need to do this, you can use the BlockSite extension to block all URL's that begin with file:// . You can get this from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3145/ and protect the restrictions with a password.
