Hi ; I'm running XP prof.
I have turned my GUEST account on so someone else can access email--but when I log off as administrator & log on as Guest, my internet connection drops out.
when I look at my network dial up connections as a guuest there is nothing there??
& as a GUEST i can not turn them on.
everything is working fine for me as administrator.
I do have home networking set up between my desktop & laptop.
:?: a very frustrated aussie

In your internet connection property, there is one check box for you to decide whether other account could use your connection or not.

when you set up the internet, did you tick the box that said "use this for all users on this computer."?
