If only you were on a network... then you could load up Singleshare or
AppleShare or something similar and create groups and users, and restrict
access at will...

The only thing I can think of is the "DiskLock" program; not only does it
lock the WHOLE hard drive (you enter a password when you boot, and you
can't "cheat" by booting off a floppy) but it also has a "workstation
locker" where you can set a password to re-access your Macintosh when you
have to step away to go to the bathroom, coffee break, etc. and it also
has Folder Lock, where you can password-protect folders.
