You might try asking your host for assistance, or seek the support forums website for the guestbook you are using.
1- Login to your cpanel
2- Click CGI Center in the section of Software / Services
3- Click Simple GuestBook
4- Click the link "Manage Guestbook"
5- Click the link "Delete This Entery", which located above of the test message
That is all, I wish you the best.
Sorry to drag up an old thread, but I have the same problem. I don't get any 'delete this entry' links when I try to manage my guestbook entries.
I suspect it's because the View Guestbook and Manage Guestbook links on the Simple Guestbook config page are the same. They both direct me to:
http://[domain name]/cgi-sys/guestbook.cgi?action=listguests&user=[username]
I strongly suspect 'action=listguests' is the problem, but I don't know what to replace it with.
If anyone could help, I'd really appreciate it.

You could probably manually edit the guestbook entry file. It should be in /home/username/.guestbook if am not mistaken. (Change username with your actual username)
Thanks lngtanseco.
I just checked and that will work for now. I've been trying to get support from my host but it seems they're pretty clueless about cPanel
Thanks again mate!
You're welcome!
Just a quick update for anyone else having the same problem: It turns out that the problem was the cPanel theme. After changing the theme, I was able to manage the guestbook.
w00t!!!!
