GUEST Account in XP runs real slow

[Guest]

I recently had a windows problem and had to boot from my XP Home disk. I
chose to repair the install and after that finished all seemed fine except
the guest account. When connecting to the internet or running programs it is
real slow when logged on as a guest. When using my Administrator log on
everything seems fine. Any idea why the guest account is sluggish?

I don't have an answer for you since we really don't know anything about
your computer or the problem you had. However, the Guest account is not
supposed to be used when you are feeling hospitable. It is a system
account that is normally disabled for security purposes.

Instead, make a new user account (Limited if you like) for visitors.
