I have Windows XP and there are two accounts, one for me, one for my parents. If I delete an icon, the same icon is deleted off the other account. This is no good because I want to use a nice, clean dock, while my parents still want icons.

Does anyone know how to allow this?

There is possibly a better way to do this, but all the same......

Go to C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop\

Cut the icons you want to only appear in one profile

C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Desktop

Paste them in there.
