disable the guest account and reset the password.
one way to do this is to right click on "my computer" and
go to "manage" extend "local users" click on "users" and
on the right side it will pop up the users. right click
on "guest" and you can then rename it and change the
password, disable it, or whatever. (can't be deleted
though)
hope this helps
