I sent my computer to Compare Computer to get it fixed and
it came back with another user listed called ASP.NET
machine A... The tech said this user name and icon came
with a windows update he ran for me. What is it for and
why does it have to be there? It does not come up on the
welcome sceen, but is listed under "users" in the control
panel listing. It says it is a limited account, yet is
password protected. This makes me uncomfortable since I
did not create this account, nor put a password on it.
Any info would be appreciated.
