Password protect files on home network

[Issy1993]

Hey, i have a Windows XP Professional desktop and i am sharing file 'x' on my network. The network is mostly accessed by my 2 other XP Home laptops.

I want to password protect access to my desktop on the home network, any idea how i can do that? I saw some guides in the Microsoft KB but i am new to all of this so i couldnt understand anything.

I am not using simple file sharing on my XP pro btw.

Thank you so much for your help.
