   Mostly conversation here.  I also have some 10 or so gamers into BRE.  I have   
   a cute front screen and that's about it.  More mucks with my occasional blind   
   callers using screen readers.  Since no one else cares, I leave it as it is.   
      
       
    > What kind of security reasons made you kill the Guest account?   
      
   Constant hits from internet folks, mostly FTP which would have been easy to   
   block separately but i decided, if you cant give me a handle, real sounding   
   name, city/state or city/country, and a gender, I didnt need the hassles.   
      
   Basically, I *chose* to lock it off.  I'm not aware of inherint security   
   issues in SBBS over it but as a security background sort, it made me nervous   
   (perhaps unreasonably so).  In the end, I just didnt want it.
