I believe if you go into control panel... there is a Users icon, and if you can create a new account through that.

Follow these steps to require users to provide a valid Windows user name and password to access a folder in IIS 6.0:\n\n1. In IIS Manager, navigate to the folder that you want to password-protect, right-click the folder, and then click Properties.\n\n2. On the Directory Security tab, under Authentication Options, click Edit.\n\n3. Clear the Allow Anonymous Authentication check box.\n\n4. Select and configure one or more of the other authentication options.\n\nYou can also configure password protection for individual files within the folder.\n\nHope this helps.  Let me know if this is the best answer.

You can do this in some Registry tricks.\n\nmark me as best answer and e-mail me your address and a hint of your request, and I can teach you how to do it.\n\nI did it before several times\n\nXLMan

yeah, first go to your home folder, then to shared, and open it form there, also, it may be a windows application, if so, email me and we might be able to work something out ;)

The following instructions explain how to set up a shared folder on student-owned computers running Windows 2000 or Windows XP Professional Edition. The shared folder can be made accessible to anyone using a Windows machine on the Wellesley network who has a user account and password on the computer that is sharing the folder. \n\nI. Configure your computer for file sharing \n\nYou will only need to configure your computer for file sharing once. If the option for file sharing is already set up on your computer or if you wish to set up another shared folder on your computer, continue to the instructions to II. Disable Administrative Shares to check that file sharing is correctly set up on your computer. \n\nGo to the Control Panel. \nIn Windows 2000, click on the Start button and then select Settings > Control Panel. \nIn Windows XP Pro, click on Start and then select the Control Panel. \nDouble-click on the Network Dial-Up Connections or the Network Connections icon. In Windows XP, if you do not see this icon, click on Switch to Classic View located on the left side of the window to see all Control Panel options. \nIn the new window that appears, right-click on the Local Area Connection icon and select Properties from the menu. \n\nNote: The content of the Local Area Connection Properties window is the same for both Windows 2000 and Windows XP Pro.\n\nIn the Local Area Connection Properties window, check that the General tab is selected. Under the This connection uses the following items: or the Components checked are used by this connection section, check that File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks is listed and make sure that its checkbox is checked. If it is listed, the computer is already configured for file sharing; click Cancel and skip to the next section - II. Disable administrative shares. If it is not listed, then: \nClick the Install button. \nClick once on Service to select that option. \nClick Add. \nClick once on File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks to select it and then click OK. \nClick Close. \nIf the computer asks to restart, click No. You will restart your computer in the next step. Proceed to II. Disable administrative shares. \nII. Disable Administrative shares\n\nBy default, administrative shares are automatically set up on Windows 2000 and XP Professional computers once file sharing is enabled. These are set up as "hidden" shares that share out your entire hard drive(s), your printers, and your Windows system folder, etc., and which can be accessed using the Administrator password. You may identify most of these shares by the $ sign at the end of the shared folder's name, for example: C$, ADMIN$, FAX$, PRINT$, NETLOGON. To keep your computer as secure as possible from viruses and other computer attacks, you should disable these administrative shares and make sure your Administrator account has a strong password. \n\nTo disable administrative shares, follow the instructions below: \n\nRight-click on the following link: StopAutoShares. \nSelect Save Target as. \nIn the Save As window, select the Desktop as the location to save the file and then click Save. \nOn the desktop, double-click on StopAutoShares.reg (may appear without the .reg). \nClick Yes to add this information to the registry and then click OK. \nRestart your computer by clicking on the Start button and choosing Shut Down. In the window that appears, either click on Restart or make sure the Restart is selected and then click OK. \nAfter the computer has restarted, log in with the same account and proceed to step III. Disable Simple File Sharing on Windows XP Pro. \nIII. Disable Simple File Sharing on Windows XP Pro\n\nIf you have Windows XP Pro, follow these instructions to enable password-protected file sharing. If Simple File Sharing is not disabled, shared folders will not be password-protected - this will allow any users and network viruses easy access into your computer. If you have already disabled t

You can't. That's why the person who is the administrator is called that. ONLY the administrator can change your user account from being a limited user account to an administrator accound.

As far as I know NTFS drives will have access restriction.But if you want to have folder restriction use gatekeeper or Universal Shield Softwares.

On the "sharing" tab of the folder's properties sheet, when you type in a share name make sure to add a dollar sign ($) at the end. Eg: share1$. This will make the folder invisible to all other network users.\n   \n On the permissions tab, make sure you have only "Administrator" and/or the user account with which you will be accessing the folder. Never include a user account which exists on other network computers.\n\nYou can access this folder by either mapping to this folder on a machine to which only you have access or use the Start > Run and type in the path using the format:  &#92;&#92;computername&#92;sharename (Don't forget to add the dollar symbol." sharename$ ")

hello,\nyou dont need a program, just select which directory you want to make "password protected" .. your host should give this option. If not I would suggest a different host like yahoo hosting which has this option.

If you don't have admin rights from the get go, you will not be able to asign yourself rights. You could try to load in safe mode but that would require some registry editing. I would suggest getting the tech to load for you. TX

you can do that only if you have administrative rights on that computer and make sure that folder is not a shared folder.

you can't really restrict access to this folder like that... not without making your own life harder..well you can but its abit indepth and if you get it wrong it will cause problem with the computer using the folder.. if you are using xp you could give him his own user account as a regular user, not administrator like your account would be... and as the administrator you could apply the content adviser so that most site of a certain type are blocked... he as a regular user will not be allowed to do certain stuff... like install programs and modify settings....\n\nI cant remember if user level restricts access to the temp folders in the sense to simply empty them.. \n\nBut to be honest if someone was on my computer doing something that i didnt want them to do.. i would make it that they just didnt use my computer... they could be opening you up to viruses.\n\ngood luck.\n\nps: perhaps its the facts that you dont find anything in the caches, especially when you haven't cleared it recently, is the proof that he's been doing something dodgy.\n\npps: if you dont mind making your own life narder then reduce your account down to a user lever and use the administrator account to do major stuff, instals etc... then he can't install stuff using your account.... and start the content advisor with a password that only you know.. this way when you use the computer you can turn the adviser off whilst he cant look as dodge stuff.

Right click the folder and go back into properties and uncheck the "share this folder" box. It is really that easy and simple. As the owner of the file you can choose how and when you wish to share. You can share for long enough to just allow somebody a quick peek or for weeks, months and years. Until somebody higher up in the company decides to take ownership of this file from you, you can continue to share as you please. It is possible though for your administrator to take over ownership of any file and folder on the network. It is not difficult to do. You would know right away when that occurred and most admins really will tell you what they are going to do before they do it, but it is still something he/she can do. \n\nGood luck and have a great day!

make sure that a service called server doesn't start. this can be set from administrative tools-> services. this makes the shared files available. also in control panel->system->remote, u can set it to ensure other users don't connect to your computer. lastly, you can even install a firewall to prevent anyone from hacking in. for specific files, go to right click menu->properties->security tab, and remove any users you like apart from SYSTEM and your user. NO one can see this file or access it. also, you can also download softwares to encrypt files and folders and set passwords. even mircosoft office applications allow this. after all this, there isn't much that an administrator can do remotely. locally, however, a lot can be done.

Two proposal :\n1- On control panel click on User accounts and define an account yourself and activate password protection for it \nI should say if you are administrator of computer you can do this .Create another limited account for other members of family so they can not use your account at windows start up and they must choose limited account and as an administrator of computer you can save your files on adminstrator folder in documents and settings and your data \nwill be private .you must start your computer in safe mode and activate password for each account except limited acounts that you have created it before for family members.\n2- If your format is FAT32 you can not to encrypt your files or folders but if you format your hard drive as NTFS \nyou will be able to encrypt them.
