Finding account info in registry

[John M. Emler]

Microsoft once stated that if you use an Admin account, then someone
could send a trojan/virus etc, to create a new admin account. Does
anyone know how to find account type info in the Registry? I know how
to hide a new account on the login screen, but how do you find out if
the account you are using is admin or user? How do I find out if an
account has been used lately? I hate to sound paranoid, but I
everyone is against me.

You can determine the type of account by going into the User Accounts applet
in the Control Panel. It will list all of the users on your computer, as
well as whether the account is an Administrator or a Limited Account.
