Look at the shortcuts contained in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop
This folder is for all user accounts of this pc. See if those you want to restrict are there. If so, while in Windows Explorer, highlight, do a Cut and paste into the other desired user-account
e.g., C:\Documents and Settings\<my account>\Desktop
See HOW TO: Take Ownership of a File or Folder in Windows XP

Bring up XP's Help and Support. Search on "taking ownership" . Read up on topics that show up:
Take ownership of a file or folder
Access control overview
File and Folder permissions
