When deleting desktop icons from one user desktop they are removed from all
user desktops. How do I avoid this?

those icons are most likely stored in C:\Documents and Settings\All
Users\Desktop\. Icons in that location are shown on the desktop for every
user. Try moving those icons to each individual desktop folder (C:\Documents
and Settings\username\Desktop).
