Hi All, I am having some problems with my Windows 98 os, I already have a
password set up on my home PC to keep the kids out, but now I have decided
that I would just like to limit their access to some personal documents in
the "My Documents" folder.  I have heard that I might be able to do this
through setting up a different user profile for them and me.  So my question
is this, do I set up user profiles (how hard is it to do this?), do I need
to remove the original Windows password and if so how?.  Can anyone suggest
an easy alternative?.

Thanks in advance,

Richard.
