    nice,it should be made default for all client applications accessing the internet!
    I wonder is there anyway around it though.

    Or what might be a better idea would be for new accounts to be non-administrative by default in the first place...

    Hopefully they'll get that part fixed in Vista.

    couldn't you just use RUNAS to start a CMD prompt with GUEST access ?

    :Give guest a random password and then use it (if the real world you'd disable/rename)
    set p=%random%
    net user GUEST %p%
    RUNAS /user:GUEST %p% cmd

    or

    it's also got a /trustlevel
