I have finally figured out how to let my windows computers browse my mac (i had to change the workgroup) but is there anyway to restrict access and make some of my files invisible on my mac so the windows users can't see them and make changes like deleting them! I was testing it out and i noticed i could delete a file from my mac using my PC laptop. I've created a seperate windowsshare user on my mac so other people in my household can browse my music and whatnot without requiring the password for my admin account, the only problem is none of my files from my account are in the windows share....do i have to copy every file over or make aliases?

If the connect users don't have userr accounts/passwords for your Mac, then they will log on as just a "guest" and only see your "Drop Box" folder. If you want to share more files/folders then get the application called SharePoints.
