Users sharing desktop icons

Hi loafaries,

These icons have probably been installed on the Public Desktop, which
enables them to be seen by all users on theirs. All you need to do is to move
them from the Public Desktop to the desktop(s) of the required user(s). They
can then be deleted from the Public Desktop and will no longer appear on the
desktop other than the one(s) that you place it on. This can also be used the
other way round, to allow all users access to a program that only places its
icons on a single user's desktop. See below for details of the location of
the desktop folders.
