Windows XP: When one person changes their desktop, everyone's changes.

I am running Windows XP SP2. When one person changes their desktop wallpaper, it changes everyone's wallpaper. It hasn't always done this, but now it does. Any suggestions to stop it?

I am using separate user accounts. Everyone in my family has their own.

I'm guessing that, when the other people try to set a new wallpaper, they're doing it from Internet Explorer (using Set As Wallpaper). Instead, have them save the image to the computer (if they save it to My Pictures, it'll show up in the list automatically). Then, select it by right-clicking on the desktop, clicking Properties, clicking the Desktop tab, and selecting their desired wallpaper from that list.
