Help on user ASPNET account? can i delete it.

[Guest]

When I installed a security updates on .Net Framework 1.1(kb886903) software
using windows update, it created a user account name ASPNET and i know that
i have .Net Framework 1.1 installed previously but i don't have the user
ASPNET before, but when i installed the security updates on .Net Framework
1.1(kb886903) it created the user ASPNET account.

Can i delete the user account ASPNET? will it cause any problem at all if i
delete it?
