Desktop Program Access

R

Rick

I am using Windows XP and have two "accounts" set
up, "Administrator" and "Guest" How do I control which
program icons are available on the "Guest" desktop?
Specifically, I would like to remove AOL from the "Guest"
desktop while retaining it on the "Administator" desktop.

Any ideas?
Thank you.

When logged in as Administrator, open C:\Documents And Settings\All
Users\Desktop and move anything that you don't want the "Guest" to see
to C:\Documents And Settings\"Administrator"\Desktop. Anything in All
Users\Desktop will show on the desktop of all users (hence the name :))
who log in. You should also open C:\Documents And Settings
\"Guest"\Desktop and remove anything that you don't want the "Guest"
user to see.
