Users Folder

I just noticed something today on my OS9 machines. MM or Multiple Users has
created a USERS folder on my hard drive. When I though about it, it should
have come as no surprise to me that it was there since I know (I think) that
Multiple Users creates a users folder when it is invoked.

What did surprise me was what was inside of the USERS folder. Much to my
surprise I found a folder for every user who has used that machine. Some of
the folders are as big as 33K. The biggest offender seems to be the HELP
folder.

My question is........is this supposed to happen under MM? I can see where
it could potentially take a up a great deal of hard drive real-estate which
could be a very large problem. Hoe do I limit the size of the content of the
USERS folders or is it possible to eliminate them all together?

I had originally though that the only storage space problem resides on the
server.
