Vista Ultimate

I have an external USB drive that I would like to have as just mine
and not share with the other user accounts on my PC. Is there a way
to do that?

Thanks,
Tango

Unplug it and take it with you is the easiest way.

Try TrueCrypt. It will encrypt a drive or create a new drive that only
someone with the correct password can access.

Do the other users have administrative rights?

No. They are all just users.

Right-click on the drive in Computer and go to Properties and Security.
There there I'd recommend adding each of their user names, and then Denying
them access, to read and list contents, etc.

If you add the Users group as a whole, which might seem faster, may force
you to elevate Explorer to an administrator to access the drive.
