I have a small home network set up with 5 computers all have Win XP home edition. I know I can share folders on the network, but how do I ad a password to certain folders to restrict certain people from obtaining the contents of the folder.

Create all the 4 users on the PC which you need to share and set access control on the folders for different users, make the same user names other than administrator on indivirual PCs and make them administrator on their PCs. Hope this will solve your problem.
