---------------

      Zope can contain multiple user folders at different locations in
      the object database hierarchy. A Zope user cannot access
      protected resources above the user folder in which their account
      is defined.  The location of a user's account information
      determines the scope of the user's access.

         This would mean, users generally can only access the content of the user folder itself - i.e. the users. It
         should read:
         "... A Zope user cannot access protected resources above the folder in which the user folder was created that
         is holding the user's account definition."
