  • :D Awesome! Thank you!!!<font color="green"></font>
  • I have Windows XP Home SP2 and for some reason this is not working. I have 2 other accounts on my computer other than mine and they are limited accounts (mine is the administrator's account) and I can't seem to make folders private. I am trying to make my folder in the "C:Documents and Settings" folder private.

    The folder name is "C:Documents and SettingsChito". I right-clicked on it and selected "Sharing and Security". The problem is that the "Make this folder private" checkbox is GREYED OUT! I don't know what is going on. I tried making just the "My Documents" (C:Documents and SettingsChitoMy Documents) private and its not working either, they are ALL greyed out. I don't understand. If someone could please help me out i would really appreciate it.

    please email me at ohshhitscarl@hotmail.com.

    thank you!!
