Strange user account appeared from nowhere

[Jim]

Hello,

I just went into my user accounts applet in the control panel and there
was a strange user account in there that said something like...

ASP.Net/Something else here

then it said it was password protected and it had limited authorization
or something like that, ...what the heck is that? Anybody know? Sounds
funny to me...

Thanks for your help..

Aloha

I'm pretty sure this is what happens when you install
the .NET component.... If that's it, it's normal.

installation.

Yup, I just read this on a website that one of the Windows Updates puts
it in there. I guess I didn't read the fine print when I installed the
update eh...


Thanks
