I have upgraded to IE8 ( from ie7) on my pc running XP-SP3. IE8 runs fine in the main admin account but in the guest account IE8 runs with all addons disabled. Under manage addons the enable button is greyed out. How do I get ie8 to run with all addons in guest account : note : i have checked the shortcut properties for IE and it is ok

It's not advisable to use the Guest acct. in the first place, as it's a security risk. Just set up a limited user acct. instead and name it whatever. See this discussion below for more info. IE8 runs without addons in XP Guest account
