Is there a way to make folders on a 2nd drive private when more then one user profile exists? I can make my documents folder on my c drive private but not others

No matter how hard you try to hide it your missus will always find your **** stash on your computer 
Just show it to her. Might lead to some new things being tried out in the bedroom
(unless you're into Bangkok ladyboys or something 
)

bit of an **** with home edition, some stuff to read below.
How do I password protect my files and folders in Windows?
How to Password Protect Folders in Windows XP, 98, 2000, NT, ME
may be a free utility that does the above, if i find one ill post it
its a bit of an **** with XP home, but depending on how computer savvy you are (IIRC) with XP home in safe mode the NTFS permissions may be visable which is the way id do it. Appy permissions to only allow yourself to access the folders, not my best answer this to be honest
