Restricting access to shared drives

Hi,
I have an office network of 4 PCs running XP pro. They share their respective hard drives and connect to the internet via an adsl router. A person in the office next door wants to connect his laptop to my router in order to use my internet connection from time to time. I have no problem with this, but obviously don't want him to have access to any of the data on the other computers - just the internet. What's the easiest way to do this?
 
right click on the disks that are shared and go over to the security tab. There will be the option to control who has what access. You need to add all the users who you want to have access and give them the amount of control you want, then make sure "Everyone" has no access.
