in your users section in system preferences, I think there is an option for allow guest user.

Just unclick this.

If isnt, (maybe my memory of panther is playing up), then it will be because you have enabled root as valid sign on.

Have you?

I think you could be right. When I restored Panther and went to log in, I typed my password and it refused me access. I checked that the hint was correct and typed it in again but I was refused access every time, so I got the Install Disc and used the change password facility. I noticed that initially I had put it in as root, which was a mistake (this was about 0400 hrs in the mornings!) but I changed it by removing the password from root and putting it on Me. I can now log in but have the two options: Me and Other.... Not sure how to disable ROOT login if it does not work with the facility I described though.
