Restricting Views for Guest, User or Restricted User

[Tom]

I am trying to restrict my daughters access to my programs
and view of my programs as a guest or restricted user
under XP Professional. Currently she can see all of the
programs in the Program Files directory and I'd like to
hide the view to most or all of them.

I tried the "Software Restriction Policy" under Local
Security Policy applet, found in "Admistrative Tools"
using ADMinistrator account and is does not address this
issue.

Thanks Tom
