It is possible, though perhaps not easy to find:

1) Open Regional and Language Options from the Control Panel.
2) Go to the Languages tab and press the Details... button.
3) Press the Key Settings... button.
4) For any Actions that have "Hot keys" assigned, select them from the
   list and press Change Key Sequence.
5) Untick both checkboxes.
6) Press OK on all the dialogs that you have opened.

If you have the Language Bar displayed, you can still switch keyboard
layouts with the mouse, but you avoid accidentally doing it while
using Left Shift and Left Ctrl together (which I think is a default
language change hot key).
