The first time I accessed my storage server through Windows Explorer I was asked for my usename and password for that server, so I put them in and it connected fine. But now every time I connect to the server through Windows Explorer it goes straight to my files without asking for a password.
What if another user on that server what to access there files from my PC, how do I change the username and password?

Try unmounting it by hand from my computer and see what it says the next time you connect. I think it will ask for the username and password again. Saving the user id / password is not a very good idea if you have a shared computer.
 
The computer is not shared.
I don't have any of the CC files/drives mapped to Windows I just get to them through:-

My Network Places-Entire Network-Microsoft Windows Network-Mshome-Clarkconnect

Any other ideas?
 
i have a win 2k3 box as my server and its only the first time a computer connects to the shared folders it asks for user and pass untill i restart the client computer.
