I Have many folder "User's Document" on My Computer in Windows XP and each
folder are the "My documents" folder of each user on the local computer. So
I have acces to their documents directly on "My computer". I have "My
document"on my desktop and "aaa's document", where aaa is my user name, on
"my computer. I can't delete them. What I can do to correct the problem?
How does this happen?

These are called user profiles, which contain files from previous users
logged in to the PC, IF YOU ARE ON A COMPANY NETWORK, I suggest that you
contact your IT department, you could find yourself in serious trouble if IT
needs these files.

right click my computer, left properties, click on the advance tab, single
left click settings, and remove the profiles this way.
 
Assuming this is a home desktop
You dont have a problem
Each user will have their own My Documents folder
The reason you can see them all is that you are logged on with administrator
rights, or you are using the administrator account as your default account,
bad move.
