Can't be done in windows 9x It can only be done in win NT or win 2k and they must be installed on an NTFS partition. Feel like switching to NT? You may however be able to find 3rd party software that enables you to do it but I do not know of any.

Try Magic folers and Folder guard. Both of these third party utilities will do the job.
