Limited account has access to everything with FTP

Hi

I'm still trying to set up my FTP server.

I was accessing it using my administrators account and I noticed that I
could go open up any file on my computer which I felt was risky.

So I created a new limited account and 'attributed' it to the root default
folder (the one that is first opened up when I use FTP)

But with 'explorer', this limited account has as much access as the
administrators account before.

How can I limit the account to one folder and its subfolders only?

Thanks in advance
