ASP.NET user account

[Guest]

Hi-

I just noticed that I have a user account with limited access but I DID NOT
CREATE IT. It is called "ASP.NET Machine A". Where did it come from and
should I delete it?

Thanks in advance

This account in created when the .NET Framework 1.1 is
installed on a computer. A program you installed on your system
may have required the framework in order to operate properly.
The framework is also available through Windows update. You can
safely delete the account. If you remove the framework, the
program that installed it will probably display an error
message the next time it's run.

Take a look here for more info.
