This is why the Guest account is usually disabled for security reasons.
In grown-up operating systems like NT, XP, and *nix, the Guest account
doesn't mean you're being hospitable. Instead, make a Limited account
for friends and disable the Guest account.

XP's Help & Support is a good place to start. Click Start>Help and
search for "make private". If you have trouble, here is a Knowledge
Base article describing what is necessary to make My Documents private:
