Hello,

I recently had to re-install SP2 and afterwards I noticed that a new user
account had been added to my computer named ASPNET.

1. I never created any ASPNET account.
2. My first installation of SP2 did not have this account.

There seems to be something odd about this. Has anyone else seen anything
like this or know about this rouge ASPNET account on SP2.

Please disregard earlier post as I have found the answer to my question
reading other posts in this forum.

I will get into the habit of doing searches within the forums before posting
my questions.

Sorry for any inconveniences....

It's a user account for the Net Framework. Programs can need accounts too, just like humans. The computer has a number of it's own for its use, though these are normally hidden.
