Hide administrator accounts

[Guest]

I want to hide the administrator account from appearing on the scree
that the ordinary user sees to login. C'Panel->Users shows some accounts
SQLDebugger for example, that do not appear on the login screen.

What can I do to make an administrator account act the same

Thx, Joe

For a personal machine, the TweakUI tool from the XP PowerToys
does this, as do some third-party tweakers.
All that these do is manage the registry entries located at
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows
Nt\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\SpecialAccounts\UserList

I looked in the registery & only see entries such as Default, HelpAssistant, IUSR_, IWAM_, etc
Nothing that resembles a particular user account

I also looked with TweakUI & could not find any way to manipulate accounts that appear o
the login screen.

Can you give me any additonal pointers

Thx, Jo
