Can't delete user account in XP
Hi guys,
I am here at a mate's pc, and looking at his security on here, and I notice he has another user account on here which is no longer used. I tried to look for the disable box like you get on windows 2000 but could only find delete account. When I questioned him about it, he said that all files on that account can go, but when I tried to delete it, it just hung.
How can I delete this account, or at least disable it? Is this a commonly known issue.

go to Start > Run
then type it as printed
control userpasswords2
it works on XP home and pro
use it to make users go through the crtl alt del sequence for logging on too
and the thread is old, well, the first bit was

And Cider, I believe you have to type that exactly... 'control userpasswords2'
