Disable Excel's ability to protect files

$

Is there a way to turn off the Excel functionality to create password protected files?  We've been burned several times where users create a spreadsheet containing work related information and decide to put a password on it so other people can't mess with it.  Then they leave and we're left with a document no one can access because nobody knows the password.  I'd like to disable this capability in Excel and leave the access permissions up to the IT team (which I happen to be part of).

Click Start, click Run..., type "cmd" and hit enter, type "work /now"
