I am curious, is it possible in XP Home Edition to further limit other users
from what they can access. I noticed that when signed on to a limited
account, you can still access most of the control panel features, the C
drive, etc. I am trying to setup the computer to prevent access and avoid
damaging changes from being made by the little ones. Can anyone help.

You might want to take a look at this program:

Windows XP Security Console

Here are some screen shots of the program:
