installing programs on multiple accounts help plz

Hi,
My laptop his 3 accounts; 2 administrators and 1 limited. I use the
1st admin account and my dad uses the 2nd. The problem is....when he
installs new programs and stuff onto his account, they also appear in my
account and on my desktop (I dont like!). If i uninstall the programs
or remove the icons from my desktop, it also affects his account. How
can I make the accounts INDEPENDENT of each other ? I want to be able
to remove his icons and stuff from my account without removing it from
his.
Thanks.

In general if this can be done at all it will be done at install time - if
the program asks to install for the current user or for all users, then make
the appropriate selection. However, this is a function of the installer,
not a function of Windows, so there's no way to stop a program that insists
on installing for all users from doing so.
