When setting XP home to use multiple accounts with one administrator and one or more guest / limited users, is there any ways to, or programs that can restrict access to chosen installed programs, and also lock out the control panel?? cheers

Yeh thats what im looking for! Although, i can't get the secruity tab up!! Its says: On the View tab, under Advanced settings, clear Use simple file sharing [Recommended]. But i do not seem to have a check box for 'Use simple file sharing' Any ideas???

Think ive found why... "...However, in Windows XP Professional, you can also set folder permissions for specific users or groups..." Im running XP Home. Unfortunate!! cheers tho! Any ways for setting it up on Home Edition??
