You cannot limit access to files without some kind of 3rd-party
utility running. Do a search on "Access Control" or "Security" at
places such as http://www.paulspicks.com/ and you should get a list of
several utilities such as SecurDesk and PGP.

decided

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

suggest
