Windows XP SP3



My drive D has a folder Ersoy Documents and Asaf Documents

When I go to Start > My Document I get "Ersoy Document". This is how I set

it up.



If I go to My Computer in addition to all the drives and Shared Documents

folder I also have a folder "Ersoy's Documents". It's contents are identical

to My Documents/Ersoy Documents. I can not delete the folder. If I delete

any file from it, the file is also deteted from My Documents.



If I hover the mouse over it I see the following: "Contains files and

folders shared between the users of this computer". I do not have any

folders and drives which are shared.



Obviously, it is an image of My Documents folder but how can I get rid of

it, and what is its use?
