First, exit the SpamBayes server.  Then go to the directory "\Documents
and Settings\username\Application Data\SpamBayes\Proxy" and edit the
bayescustomize.ini file.  Delete any lines that begin with
allow_remote_connections and save the file.  Now restart the SpamBayes
server and all the remote connection options should be reset to their
default values.
