hi everyone im setting up my small home network, i have windows 7 on my desktop and vista on my laptop, i can access files via both so im happy i have set it up ok the main problem is when im using my laptop and go into network then click on my desktop i can access the "user" folder which contains Liam & Public. I dont want to share the folder "Liam" only the Public folder but im having great problems trying not to share the "Liam" folder. I go to C:\users\liam right click the folder then sharing and then advanced sharing which is unticked, but I am still able to access this folder through my laptop, its showing the network path as liam-desktop\users\liam any ideas why i cant stop sharing the folder?

hope you can help

thanks again
