Click to expand...

Open Windows Explorer and navigate to this folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop
You can now move any icons you don't want seen by all into the
corresponding folders of the users you do want to see the
icons.

Let's say you have two users, USER1 and USER2. You'll find
these folders:
C:\Documents and Settings\USER1\Desktop
C:\Documents and Settings\USER2\Desktop
Put the icons you want seen by a user into its Desktop folder.

Good luck
