Vista - Why is my desktop public?

Okay this may only serve to make me laugh, but it's sure to be a bug. Instead
having my desktop set to me as a user, it's under the public folder branch.
Which also means it's on auto share. At the moment I'm undecided as to
whether or not I like this new addition. I didn't like the auto shares under
XP.

Anyone else notice this?

That is very strange. I checked mine, and it is not listed under public. My normal user account info is listed under Jay and Jason is my Admin account that I use only when needed.

It should like something like this:

Well at least that tells me it's not that way by default. Now to figure out
how fix it.
