I am looking for more protection then just protecting it. I was hoping maybe
a message box if someone tried to insert.

You can disable the menu item :
Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu
Bar").Controls("Insert").Controls("Columns").Enabl ed = False
Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu
Bar").Controls("Insert").Controls("Rows").Enabled = False
