Do you have Windows XP? If so you can have fairly private documents by making sure you have your own passworded username.

Go to the control panel, then user accounts and make sure that you have your very own username there. Once you do, select it and add a password, it should tell you that you can keep your my documents folder private this way.

hi
i am sorry but i do misunderstand you here,We all use the same password to log on to the PC and then when i want to download photos from my camera to the PC,they are there for everyone to look at because if you go to my photos then every1 can see them,i was wondering if when i d/load my photos unto PC can i put them in my own folder or something like that where then you need a p/word to open that folder/document
sorry but i have only started using PC recently

you will need a program

tweak xp

or folder lock

bascially it will be a software that can hide and lock any folder you want to.
you will need to enter a password to lock or gain access to the folder

enjoy
