For files: use NTFS as your disk format and make sure the other users don't
have permissions to access the folders they oughtn't.

For the printer: not sure, but you may be able to do this with a group
policy. By default, local printers are available for all users.

Note - you should disable the guest account....it's unwise to leave it
enabled, for security reasons. Also make sure your firewall is enabled or
you have another one in place.

i would really appreciate your help.
