XP Pro Force's Guest Account

[Evan]

I tried what you said. I still get prompted the same as I
used to when trying to log into the other laptop through
the network.
Guest is in the username field, but it is greyed out so
you can't change it, and it only lets me enter a password.
I would like to be able to enter both a username and a
password.
