In my office, five persons share a computer. They create their files on desktop at will, making the desktop a mess. How to set the computer to forbiding them from doing so?
 
well, if you are running win xp you could set up a different account for each user and set a password for yours.
 
right click folder>Properties>Permissions (or something like that)>Chose the users you don't want to Read/Write/View and move the checkbox. You have more *POWER* with admin privliges :D . Be careful, you might get some people mad at you :D


NOTE: This is for a Windows XP with an NTFS partition/Hard Drive

NOTE: You can find the desktop folder in: WIN. XP; C:\Documents and Settings\USER_NAME\Desktop. EVERY OTHER WINDOWS; C:\Windows\Desktop
But, not that this will help much, this isn't for older Windows systems :(

NOTE: I'm running Knoppix (Linux) right now. Don't get mad if this errors :(
Good luck! :D
