I have windows XP and I was in my control panel and
discovered that I had another user that I did not add,
but it is not acessable when you turn the computer on, I
only knew it when I was in the user accounts. It
is "ASP.Net Machine..." Does anyone know what this is and
how it got onto my machine, It is a limited account with
a password. How do I remove them or stop someone from
adding another user?
 
Hi Rita, it's part of Net Framwork. You must have installed in from the Windows
Update at some time. You'll see it in your Add/Remove. Nothing to worry about.

Just ignore it. It won't do any harm. I have it on my comp.

Hi

It comes from the the DotNet 1.1 Framework update that is installed
on you computer:

INFO: Process and Request Identity in ASP.NET
