I have Windows XP and there are 3 user accounts on it. I am an administrator and I put all my music into the documents folder of the " all user " account so everybody could use it. I recently tried to access this folder and got an "access is denied error". All the other "My Documents" folders are accessable. I am annoyed…

I have Windows XP and there are 3 user accounts on it. I am an administrator and I put all my music into the documents folder of the " all user " account so everybody could use it. I recently tried to access this folder and got an "access is denied error". All the other "My Documents" folders are accessable. I am annoyed as there is a lot of stuff lost if I cannot retrive it. I have run a virus scan to no avail.
Is it a virus or has somebody been messing around with it?
Can anyone help

Thanks

if you sign in under your administrators account and right click on the my music folder and go to sharing and security there is a check box saying make this folder private. uncheck it, i cant see what other problem you might have...
