I'm running XP Home Edition. I have the Guest Account
turned on but when someone is logged on as a guest they
can not connect to the internet using my default dial-up
connection. When I look at Internet Options in the
control panel it shows that there is no connection set
up, and of course when logged on as a guest I can not add
a new connection because I need administrative rights to
do that.

When logged on to the computer as the administrator the
connection works just fine. How can I set up the Guest
Account to have access to the internet?

Thanks for any suggestions.
 
check out the forum "Getting Started\Windows XP General"
as this has been answered there. Look for Letting Guest
