you need to adjust the permissions settings to prevent that issue.

If it's Windows-based, select each of the drives, go to Properties-->Sharing and Security, make sure no permissions are inherited from parent objects, and then set your deny permissions for "This Folder, Subfolders and Files".
If you do it right, your guest user will still see the drives themselves, but when they go to click on them receive an "Access is Denied" message.

You probably need to turn off simple file sharing.

If you're using XP Home, though, you're pretty well out of luck.
