Is there any way to make permanent changes to the 'Guest Account'. I'd like it to start Front Row automatically at login.

At the moment any changes are deleted at logout, but the default configuration must be coming from somewhere...

Anyone any ideas?

I did find the /System/Library/User Template directory, but adding a dock plist to start FrontRow seemed to get overwritten.

Excellent, cheers.

So it was the 'User Template' directory. I should have been more persistent!
