Hello!

I am using Vista b5487 and noticed the guest account do not have network
connection. I see a red X network icon in my system tray with its hover
text "... Access is denied."

How can I give this one access?

Thank you in advance.

Using build 5384.4, the Guest account has the red x over the network icon,
but internet and network access is there. The inbuilt Guest account has
restrictions on it, but is able to view network computers and use the
internet.
