In the Start Menu:

1. Right-click on the My Documents folder and choose Properties.
2. Then at the top there are 3 tabs: Target, General, and Sharing. Choose sharing.
3. Check the box that says "Make this folder private"

Note that this will only hide all files in your My Documents folder. The files in your desktop can be accessed by other users with admin accounts.

Wow... I didn't know that... Why, is there a greater chance that the desktop files will be corrupted instead of the My Documents folder?

Eep!
I have a lot of files in my desktop... it's more accessible than the other folders. Plus firefox automatically downloads stuff to the desktop. =( Thanks for the tip!

this is what i do ,i find it best to create a folder[call it aadownloads so its first in the list, easier to find ] in the mydocuments folder ,create a shortcut on the desktop to it !
edit firefox to download to the aadownloads folder .simple as that .
to edit firefox just go tools/options/main/ in download area ,browse and direct it to the aadownloads folder in mydocs .
