Ah. This is something I've run into. Even though Control Panel-Users shows
the guest account is off, if you go to control panel-Administrative
tools-Computer management-Users and Groups it will tell you the guest
account is ON!!!! Turn it off there.
WHY on earth MS decided that if you turn off guest account in Control
Panel - user accounts it isn't really turned off, I have no idea! Just more
not-joined-up thinking from MS I guess.
