Guest or everyone file sharing?
What is the difference between guest and everyone?
How safe is Guest and how safe is everyone in file sharing on my local network? Can anyone see these other than the trusted computers?

Guest is a single account name, that is a member of the group Everyone. With a resource open to Guest, if any one person connected can access it, then any person connected can access it. http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/06/file-sharing-under-windows-xp.html#Guest http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/2005/0...-xp.html#Guest -- Cheers, Chuck, MS-MVP 2005-2007 [Windows - Networking] http://nitecruzr.blogspot.com/ Paranoia is not a problem, when it's a normal response from experience.
