Anybody can look into the files contained in anyones directory regardless of what name I log in under, it doesn’t even ask for a password. Below will give you a guide to protect files between users.
Open up the properties of your home directory, (Places->Home Folder, right click on the background, Properties), head over to the Permissions tab, and set the Other permissions to what you want.
In the Permissions Tab,you can set the others permission to what you want,”None” or “List file only”
