I agree just copy the account and make your own with a password. You can also copy somebody elses account to get access to COPIES of their files.

i just set the folders to hidden because all my brother doesnt know about hidden folders and then i useually find some folder deep in xp to hide them. another one of my favorites is making an invisible folder just highlight the name and hold down the ALT key and press 255, the click change icon and scroll through the list till you find an empty space and select that one. there you go you got an invisible folder now encrypt it and change it to hidden
