You're welcome, Craig. With the Guest account enabled for network
access, we're almost there. These steps should solve the problem:
1. Click Start | Run, type "secpol.msc" in the box, and click OK.
2. Double click "Access this computer from the network" and make sure
that the Everyone group is included.
3. Double click "Deny access to this computer from the network" and
make sure that the Everyone group is NOT included.
