New User Account

[Haim Guivon]

After installing HP software for my new digital camera, a new User Account
suddenly appeared in my computer (it may be by sheer coincidence). The new
account reads:

ASP.NET Machine A...
Limited Account
Password Protected

An interesting feature is that this account does not appear in the Welcome
Screen when I login.

Maybe someone here knows what this is? I won't delete this account until I
know more about it.

Thanks in advance
