If you then want to use another account (ie turn the guest account back off or get a higher level of access), leave another post and i'll give you the steps, it is quite complex... I you do not want users to be able to log on as guest from the logon screen, but still use the guest account for networking (the easiest and most trouble free method) you can get a tweaking program that will remove the guest account from the logon screen.

What we want to do is what you suggested secondly, ie If you then want to use another account (ie turn the guest account back off or get a higher level of access), leave another post and i'll give you the steps, it is quite complex... I eagerly await your reply. Thanks.	Guest (0)
