Win 7: I tried to stop sharing a folder from my user (administrator), but later when I logged in from a different administrator user, the "click continue to permanently get access to this folder" dialogue turned up and to my utter dismay, once I clicked continue, the folder opened and its contents revealed. I need to stop sharing the folder with any user on the machine and the network (I use a wireless router for broadband internet). Please help!
