If you right click on the folder you keep all your music under, click properties, click the sharing tab, there's a check box that makes the folder 'private'.

AFAIK, this stops using other profiles from accessing that folder.

I don't know specifics since I don't let anyone else on my PC so haven't used it myself. I lock my PC every time I go afk.
