    I was wondering if I could put a password on "My Documents" so they are locked. So no-one who uses my computer can get into that area.
    I know I can lock my whole computer with a password, but I have files and such that some people(who use my computer) just do not need to see.
    Is there anyway to do this?

    Hey!

    I'm pretty sure Me doesn't support encryption. Only 2000 and XP do. If i'm right you have two options.
    Upgrade to one of the two or you can get a third party utility that will keep your data safe. There are many on the market so you'll have to look around.
    If the data is critical then you should get a decent one. If you just want to keep harmless nosey people away get something like this.
