NetworkService

[Ron Patterson]

I am running Win XP Pro. A stand alone computer never on and never to be on
a network.
Recently, I noticed a new NetworkService folder under C:\Documents and
Settings.
Where did it come from?
Do I need it?
Why can't I delete all of it? - Specifically I can't delete \LocalService
I hate things cluttering up my computer I don't need or want

Take a look at this

It should shed the light on what NetworkService folder is
