Do people have to have WordPress accounts in order to like comments on my site?

  New at this … I saw a like button (with a star next to it) on one of the comments on my page (it’s a test comment I put in). I can like it but when I showed it to friends, it appears that they can’t like it unless they have Word Press accounts? A dialog box showed up when the clicked like, asking for username and password.
  Thanks in advance for help!!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
