Hi,
Control Panel/Folder Options/View tab, uncheck simple file sharing. Click
apply/ok. Now you should be able to access the security tab when you
right-click a folder and select properties (note: you must be using the ntfs
file system). On this tab, you can set access permissions for other user
accounts.
HOW TO: Set, View, Change, or Remove File and Folder Permissions in Windows
XP
