Enable the creation of a password for the guest account

Time Required: 1 Minute, 5 Minutes, 10 Minutes, 15 Minutes

Notes: A computer with more than one user may be vulnerable to unauthorized people using the guest account. This is a nice way to password protect it.

Warnings: This is dangerous if you do not know what you are doing. I do not take responsibility for anything that you do to your computer that harms it or any files on it in any way.
