Is there a way to stop anyone opening up a new access database and linking to your tables without using the built in Access security permissions?

Other than the operating system's built in security I can't think of any.

Yes. If they do not have rights to view the database items, they will not be able to link,but only if you use access security. Other than that, you cn lock the folder with windows security, but if the user has read access to the folder, they can get all of your data, and even change it.
