I’m developing an ecommerce site using Magento v. 1.7.0.2 and for some reason,
every time I try to add a product to cart on the front end, the system requires
that I log in before it will let me add it.
I have Guest Checkout enabled and none of my test products are downloadable.
Interestingly, it only happens on Windows. I clear the cache in all my browsers on Windows
and try it and I get the log in / register screen whenever I try to add a product to cart.
If I test it on the Mac, though, it works perfectly.
Why is this happening and how do I fix it?
Many thanks!

Well, I solved the problem. Believe it or not, it was a CSS error on my part.
I had the wishlist link div overlapping the add to cart button, in effect
covering it up w/ the wishlist link.
So while it looked like I was clicking on Add to Cart, I was actually adding
the item to my wishlist, which cannot be done w/o being a logged in, registered
user.
Sigh…big DOH! on my part.
The moral of this story is: always check your code!
