Question about hidden Administrator account, i.e. "Administrator's Documents"

[circuit slave]

I'm curious if anybody could explain this to me: During installation,
it asks you to create a password for the Administrator account. And
then after the last Windows logo screen and it's almost complete, It
goes through the registration part and also asks "Who will use this
computer" and you need to at least have one person (there's like five
availabe user areas)

And so I create "MIke", and then one it's complete, if you go into My
Computer C:\Documents and Settings\ then you see two folders "Mike"
and "All Users" okay fine.

However, once I log on to the built-in Administrator account, and then
log back off. And log back on as Mike, I now see three folders:

"Administrator" "Mike" and "All users"

Why does it now show the Administrator folder, when it didn't before?
I'm not signed on as the Administrator?

Is there any way to "hide" this folder again, so you can't see it? If
Mike is part of the Administrator group, then why couldn't this folder
be seen before?

thanks, and sorry for any confusion.

The folder isn't created until you log on to the account. Why do you
need to hide the folder? Only the Administrator or a user with Admin
rights can access it anyway.

Okay, thanks for the info guys. I was just curious. I didn't know that
the Admin folder was created once you log on as the built-in Admin
account. I just never noticed it until I logged on as Admin, that's
all.

P.S. I don't need to hide the folder. I just didn't know an Admin
Folder existed until now.
