Hey I'm trying to transfer some files from my old computer to my laptop over wireless. I know it's possible because I can see my old computer on the network thing in finder. I know on the PC downstairs I can right click files and make them shared over the network. Is there a way i can put a password on these folders so that only I can access them from over the wireless network. I've done this before without a password, but I'd feel better if I knew I was the only accessing the files.

If you want to password protect individual folders in Windows, you will have to move them into your Documents directory. Only there can you set a password for accessing folders.
If you want to set access rights to your whole Windows HD, you can achieve that by creating additional network user profiles with different priviledges via the Network Setup Wizard. -
OK cool thanks
