If by "guest account" you mean that you enabled Guest in Control Panel>User
Accounts, please go back there and disable it. Guest is a system account
and you'll continually have issues using it. Instead, create a regular user
account and call it "Visitor" or the like - if creating an account in your
GF's actual name shows too much commitment. ;-)
