PCLOS 2007 has either
guest password is guest
root password is root

You will need the root password to install

No I only want to test it it but I tried guest and guest but it said incorrect login.I have tested another version of pclos before but I didn't have to give a localhost login.....

Dude, you're in the text-based interface. That means that you did not come to the graphical interface for PCLOS2007. So unless you know your way around a command line Terminal, I suggest:

1) Re-downloading/Re-burning the LiveCD
2) Posts about how to get the graphical interface up and running on your computer
3) A different distro.

I know it isn't text-based. i have PCLOS and use it more than any other distro. i was trying to say that it sounded like your graphical interface wasn't loading. probably because of hardware issues. So you were being kicked to a CLI (Command Line Interface).

well I searched it and i am not the only one with the problem but the others said that when they loaded it with the Vesa drivers it was ok.i tried it too but it didn't work.I don't think that it is hardware issue.my computer is new.I bought in the summer.Well it may have been a problem when I burned it...I was out of CDs so i found one that wasn't in the best condition.I will reburn it and see what I can do.Whatever,thanks for the help.

Trust me, I feel your pain! haha... Sometimes it's not a hardware issue because the hardware in your computer is old or broken. It could be in the best condition, but still not be compatible with the default drivers a particular distro uses upon install/boot. So maybe try another distro or keep looking for the answer. You'll get it, and we're more than happy to help! Maybe some people with more knowledge than me will come across this thread and they can help you better than I can. Good Luck!
