In Windows XP Home Edition, I set up a guest account.

The guest account cannot use my "network connections" to
dial up my ISP. When you right click the network
connection for my ISP, the command "connect" is greyed
out. The network connection for other users works fine.

I looked all over for how to change the "policies"
or "rules" for guest accounts, but everything speaks about
Windows XP Professional.

Thanks for any help. A reply directly to my email is
appreciated.
