You could try disabling Port Forwarding and uPnP.

On Some routers you can block keywords, I know on Belkin that is possible. For keywords, just block the names of the software or block the word p2p all together. That will stop him from getting it online, but if he has AIM or MSN, and someone sends it to him, then the router cant stop it. Then thats where blocking ports will come it.
