Has anyone else noticed this bug? I have guest accounts turned off on my MBP's, but after this new patch, it's back on . . . and although it says "disabled" in the system preferences, it is still available upon login. I've tried toggling the switch and that seems wrong. Check mark to enable it, but then it's listed as "disabled" and vice-versa.

Anyone else have this problem, anyone have a work around? Would like to turn off Guest Accounts again.

IIRC if you have Find My Mac enabled it allows Guest login but only to the Recovery partition?

I also noticed that the Guess User account was enabled on both my mbp & mac mini and thought that was very odd since I've never set up a guess user account on either computer.I was able to enter my pass word and uncheck the "allow guest to connect to shared folders" option and disable the guess user account.But the remove option isn't available.......

Right, I know I had it disabled / removed previously and never had any problems. It looks like they reset the setting but the switch was set the wrong way. Today I went in and just checked the setting, and when I reset it was back to normal.
