How do I disable/prevent multiuser for Windows ME so that I'm the ONLY person who can use my computer?

I do not want my roommate to use my computer. She has her own computer, but is too cheap to pay $20 (between the two of us - we live on campus) a month for cable service, so after I got cable service, she started to use my computer without my knowledge! She's virus-prone too! I didn't enable multiuser. However, when the password dialog box pops up, all I have to do is either (1) click "cancel" and everything will load like normal, or (2) simply type in a new username and password and everything will load like normal. So how can I prevent her from using my computer?! I haven't been able to find any useful information, even on the Microsoft website. Everything is about how to disable the password dialog box!
