I recently installed a second hard drive in my computer running Window
XP home edition. This new hard drive is to mostly be used as fil
storage, so I can free up the master hard drive to hold and ru
applications.

I was just wondering how do I make the folders private so other user
(like my sister, who has her own user account name on Windows) doesn'
have access to some folders, but so that she can still have access t
her own stuff if she puts stuff on the hard drive
