The Built-in Administrator Account May Appear in the User Accounts
Posted by Simon S on December 4th, 2005


I have XP SP2 Home and my PC has the problem that the Administrator A/C is
displayed in Accounts - insecure! Problem is discussed in MS Article ID
314412 which states MS have a supported fix.

Problem is, this being a bug, I don't want to have to pay MS for fix. Mine
is OEM version but PC is out of warranty and so unsupported by manufacturer.

Could someone kindly e-mail it to me please. Otherwise i will have to wait
for XP SP 3.........!
