Is there any software that can be installed in Windows XP to set file permissions for guest accounts?

So that they would have to input a valid administrator password first before they can access the file?

I've seen a feature like this in Ubuntu, wherein even the administrator has to input the password over and over just to access a certain drive. But I need it in Windows XP.
