Lately i have noticed the "Guest User" on the login screen, i thought i had it turned off but its still there ?

Here are my settings, also i am not able to right click on the Guest User to get Advanced options like i can with my other accounts.

[I'm running Lion OS X 10.7.2]

Ah thank you! Turns out that i'm going to keep it on so that the Find My Mac option works.

The only strange thing here is after the round of updates etc. The guest account was ONLy created on my MBP. Not on my Air, seemed strange at the time, but the account makes sense, and I'm keeping mine. I think it's because I have a passworded admin account on my MBP and not on the Air (I know I'll do it next time I use it) It's a good idea to have that account though...I have friends visiting this weekend who will want to play with my newbie.

Guest account for them!
