Assign a password to the "Guest" account. When other people try to
access your workstation, they'll be prompted to enter the password:

1. Click Start | Run.
2. Type "control userpasswords2" in the box and click OK.
3. Under "Users for this computer", click Guest.
4. Click Reset Password, enter a password, and click OK.
