asp.net acount

[raret...@hotmail.com]

i was checking my user accounts and i found one
called "asp.net machine a..." as i have no recolection of
allowing/installing or seeing anything to do with it on
my computer it was a limited account and i stumbled on it
purely by accident i immediatly changed the name and
password on the account but i find myself worrying that
even though i am running virus and firewall software that
my computer is not secure and may be vunerable to other
users .if anyone could help with this please email me and
let me know what course of action to take .

The account is set up by the .Net 1.1 Framework setup routine (you may have
installed this from Windows Update).
You should not have renamed it or changed it's password.
It is required by applications that use the .NET Framework 1.1 to execute in
a lower more secure context then your account.
Have a look in Add or Remove Programs in Control Panel and remove the
Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1
Then if the account still exists remove it.
Then reinstall the Framework.
