Different default programs for different users

I have two users on one computer with XP Home Edition.
Each user uses different programs for email and music.
Why is XP seemingly unable to deal with this?
Apparently, when one user changes the default setting for
a program on their "side" of the computer, XP changes it
for both users. What a shame! Win2000 handled this
correctly. Am I doing something wrong?

This is "by design", which means that no-one can answer your question.
;} Hopefully it will be changed in future versions of Windows.
