I recently installed Kodak Easy Share software on my user account on our
family computer. I just found out that the program is accessible from the
"
Guest". I don't want any or everyone to be able to view my photos. Is
there a
way I can make the program accessible only to my XP user account?

Any help would be greatly appreciate.

Thanks

The accepted way would be by setting the permissions appropriately. It is
very easy to do this with XP Pro. Somebody else will need to tell you how
to do this with XP Home.

If you are using XP Pro, then you should rename and disable the Guest
account and use user authentication.
If you are running XP Home but do not need to share files and folders, then
you rename and disable the Guest account.
