Hi, If you are using Win 98 then anyone can access your folder if they gain physical access to the machine. Or else if you share it. So check that the folder is not shared. And if it is shared then Password Protect it.
If you are using NT or 2000, then you need to change the permissions on that folder, by Right Clicking | Properties | Security etc. Remove the Everyone | Full Control setting, and instead only give your username full rights on the folder. Do let me know if there is anything else. HTH, K. K. Mookhey CTO, Network Intelligence India Pvt. Ltd.
