Default Access to Drives


I will create more then 2 drives on a pc. More then one
User will work on this pc (Admin, Internet, Offline).

Now i want to make sure, that the internet-user can not
see all drives an i want to close some drives (i.e. drive
g: h: i: and drive m.

The rights should be different between the user(s) and the
user should have no access to these drives and should not
see them with explorer ect.

How can i do that?

Thanks for help.
S.

You can prevent access but I don't think you can prevent the user from
actually seeing the drive. How you do this depends upon which version of XP
you are using, Home Edition or Pro. Which are you using?
