    Hello.
    Please tell me how to solve the problem: under the guest account under Windows XP, there is no access to the local network through the network environment. An error is displayed: "You do not have access to TT. Perhaps you do not have rights to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to obtain the appropriate access rights. No network name was found."

    Actually you don't want to be connecting to the Internet using the Guest account as that is insecure. In fact, you don't want to be using the Guest account at all. The Guest account is a special system account, not one meant for when you are feeling hospitable. It is disabled by default in Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7, Linux, Unix, and OS X for a reason.

    From TechNet:

    "The Guest account is intended for users who require temporary access to the system. However, if this account is enabled, a security risk may exist because an unauthorized user could gain anonymous access to the system through this account."

    above came from HERE

    you can google that error and find more instances for further reading or advice, :)

    make another account, as suggested in the thread I linked to, name it visitor and use that account to attempt a connection NOT the guest account.
