Is the computer providing the sharing running OS X or OS 9? In OS X, guest
should have limited access. On OS 9, I think you specifically have to turn
off guess access in the File Sharing control panel, or you could do a Get
Info on your disk, and check the sharing permissions. Just don't give access
to anyone and make sure the permissions are propagated to the subfolders.
