I'm not aware of a way to deny your users the ability to see the other
folder names within the Users folder, but you can achieve the effect you
want simply by insuring that each user is the only one (besides admins) who
has any rights to his/her folder. (i.e. In the Security properties, admins
and the user should be the only ones listed.) You don't want to use share
permissions for this-- you want NTFS. If someone's not listed in permissions
at all, they have no rights-- read or otherwise.
