    I'm seeing at least two accounts in the SAM file that are unexplained. I try to log in to them directly with the known passwords, and it won't let me. Wish someone knew what they are.

    OK mate, please get this tool and run it (FREE for private use )

    http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html

    The user accounts are down the left hand side, and are split into local user (your ones) and System.

    Help Assistant is like I said: the Microsoft Remote Desktop Help Assistant Account.

    Also like I said, SUPPORT_388945a0 is Microsoft's support account, as in 1, Microsoft Way, Redmond, WA. [Better tape up your 3.5" floppy drive or Steve Balmer will sneak out, raid your 'fridge and drink your beer!]

    If you have UpdatusUser then you have NVIDIA's automatic updates installed.

    ASPNET is the asp.net machine account. It only has "guest" as does the MS (Redmond) support account.

    Anything else?.............. you may well have a problem.

    Whilst you are using Belarc Advisor, scroll down and check that your Windows updates have installed correctly

    You were clearly uncertain in your original response, and so I appealed to anyone else who may know for sure.

    And this condescending attitude indicates that you know little of what is possible. Right, I know little about Winduhs; because I've run Linux exclusively for 14 years.

    Not a friendly place.

    Yeah, just like the good little TROLL that you are. I may not have sounded certain...............that means I was only 99.99% certain....................... like I wasn't booting an 11 year old OS at the time and I have been using and supporting that OS for that long.

    And this condescending attitude indicates that you know little of what is possible.
    I really don't know where to send you to find a sense of humour.

    Right, I know little about Winduhs; because I've run Linux exclusively for 14 years.
    Well now, perhaps you should just go back there then; but I would recommend not using an 11 year old distro I think that Ubuntu would suit you just fine.

    Also you don't even know how to spell the name of the OS...... it's "Windows"..............and I am 100%+ certain of that.

    Not a friendly place.
    Yeah, maybe we should post a TROLL hazard warning?
