Create a user ID account that is password protected (and don't give out the password). A password protected screensaver can be circumvented by turning off the computer & back on again. It's under control panel - user accounts.

all good advice so far. you could also turn on your firewall (in the controll pannel | security centre) or you could just kick the others in the head. i assume you are sharing an internet connection. Passwords and windows firewall will go a long way. have you tried doing mean things to there machines??? perhaps you should.

set up user accounts with passwords. in windows xp you can do this by going to the control panel then clicking on user accounts. this will require someone to enter a username and password anytime they start the computer.

Create a password to start up your pc only for you.
