Default Prevent filldown

Can I use an event macro to prevent the user from using the fill handle on
unprotected cells?
The issue is data validation. Column B has a list validation.
(For example: Tom1,Dick1,Harry1)
If the user chooses "Tom1" from the drop-down list in cell B1, then uses the
fill handle to fill down, B2 will read "Tom2", B3 will read "Tom3" etc, which
is not prevented by data validation.
Excel 2000.
Thanks in advance
Dave,
