Thanks for the info.
One more question for now: Is there a way I can modify the in-built Guest
account (as Administrator, perhaps?) to make the setup look how I want it
to look (e.g. delete unwanted Desktop icons, modify Internet Explorer
settings etc.)?

Sorry, I don't know because I have never tried. In general the Guest account
is considered a security risk and it should remain disabled.
Keep in mind the following facts in your attempt at customising the Guest
accounts:
- All user-specific properties are stored in various files in the user's
profile folder, e.g. c:\Documents and Settings\HEppel.
- When no profile folder exists then one will be created at logon time. Its
contents will be a copy of the hidden "Default User" profile folder.
If these two rules apply to the Guest account then you could tweak its
appearance by tweaking the appearance of the Default User profile folder.
Best to create a backup copy before you butcher it . . .
