What Operating System is on your computers? If you have Windows 2000, or
Windows XP Pro, you can have shared folders, and specific people can have access
to different folders. With Windows XP Home, anything that you share to anybody
will be accessible to everybody.

If you're just talking about only sharing specific folders to everybody, with
the remainder shared to nobody, you can do that with any operating system. Just
identify what specific folders you wish to share.
