Open up the folder and pull down Tools, select "Folder Options".
Go to the "View" tab and locate "Use simple file sharing (recommended)". Uncheck this box. Click OK.
Now go to the folder properties and find the security tab. By default, my harddrive shows "Everyone - Full Access (inhereted)" as the permissions. To change this, click Advanced and uncheck the "Inheret from parent the permission entries that apply to child objects." checkbox. Click OK to close out of the Advanced Security Settings window.
Click the "Everyone" user in the security pane and click remove. Now, click "Add", type in your user name, and hit OK. Make sure that your user has Full Control permissions and then go to Advanced again.
This time, click the "Replace permissions on all child objects with entries shown here that apply to child objects" checkbox and click OK. It will now go through every file in the directory and set up the permissions so that only your user can access it.
