I uncompressed the file (.gz), upload the folder at mysite/sites/all/modules/ and it doesn't even appear on the modules to be checked / activated. I've deleted the folder, reuploaded the folder, redownload the guestbook files then redo the entire thing over and over and it still doesn't show up on the modules list.

The other contributed modules show up on that modules folder except this one.

I had the same problem and it turns out that what caused it was unzipping the User-Profile-Tutorial.zip file from shellmultimedia.com (part of the user profile tutorials) underneath sites/all/modules -- because I ended up needing the nodeprofile_bonus code... Turns out that zip file has it's own EXTRA copy of the guestbook module, and I suppose drupal wasn't sure how to handle two modules named the same or something....

Once I removed that extra code folder, Guestbook showed up.

What does "find DRUPAL_BASE -name guestbook\*" say?

If it shows up multiple times, that may be causing problems...

Although Drupal should display one of the two instances then, it definitely looks like an edge-case scenario like that, because it seems that only a few users are able to replicate this bug.

@kilimanjaro/Bencoon: Could you please elaborate?

Without further information, I guess this issue has been fixed in the meanwhile.
