Win XP Home user info

[Hank]

I object to Win XP Home having my real name as a directory in my hard drive. I'm
the only user.

Is there a way to mask this? Is it possible for internet sniffer programs to see
it?

NO to both questions. But, you can change it! Go to

Start/ControlPanel/User Accounts.

If that's the name you entered when asked for a user ID, in other words,
this is your user ID folder under Documents and Setting then, go to User
Accounts in Control Panel, click "Change an Account, click your user account
and click "Change my name."
