Be careful though, when limiting access to certain
folders. You can end up making Windows inoperable for
other users if you deny access to Program Files, for
example. If you want a convenient and very simple way of
protecting you own files, save those files in your "My
Documents" folder. As long as your drive is formatted
with NTFS, limited users can not access anything within
your "My Documents" folder. And you can do this without
messsing around with settings, posibly screwing things
up :)
