I have a batch of Compaq Evos that belonged to a retail group all running Win2k pro. Although I have administrator rights I can't remove or rename the guest user account. When I try to delete it I get a message saying so. Is it possible to remove/rename built-in accounts?

I am thinking the Guest account is one of those built-in ones.... You should be able to Disable it in User Manager.

You can't it's needed, just disable it. You can also rename it if you like.
