Roaming Profile security

My question is probably simple but anyway -

I have a windows 2000 Server domain set up with local profiles - When a user logs on a local profile is created - BUT it seems any other user can access it (The local profile folder) when they log on to that PC - Can I prevent this?

Is your file system NTFS?
If it's FAT/32, then you can convert it to NTFS by clicking Start->Run->CMD <enter> Convert C: /FS:NTFS

Tried that but didn't work - do I have to change a setting on domain controller?

Still no luck - is it a question of ownership perhaps?
Do your users all have administrator access?  or local administrator access?  That would cause it as well.
I would like some of the points.  It was unclear what the final answer was in order to know who was right or not, but we all gave some valid reasons for the causes of this problem.  Thanks!
