Help with Vista User Accounts

Hey there,

I have Windows Vista Standard on my machine and have an administrative account that I'm always on. I have some roommates that I'd like to grant access to using my machine when I'm not around. I thought about turning on the guest account, but, it allows my roommates to snoop around my folders and access all my apps. Is there a way to restrict an account's permissions to the point where it can't traverse/explore my stuff and only use the internet?

Thanks.

Create an account for each person and deny that account access to your personal folders. Can be dome from local users and groups.
