sharing computer

[green]

I have 2 adminastrator accounts on my computer.I did this
thinking that each user wouldn't be bothered with the
others stuff.I'm getting her game icons and programs on
my desktop and she's getting my favorites mixed in with
hers.How do I stop this?

If you go in to c:\documents and settings, you will see both of your
accounts, as well as an all users folder. Anything in the start menu or
desktop of all users will appear for everyone, so if something gets placed
there that you don't want there, you can just move it to the folder of the
user who wants access to it.

Why do they do it this way? Because you typically want to share major
things. If you install Office, for example, you probably don't want to have
to install shortcuts for everybody - you'd rather have that happen all at
once. But you have the ability to change these things if the decision made
by the installer isn't to your liking.
