User Accounts

I was putting some processes to sleep using process explorer and noticed that on the security tab. their was an account listed as unknown, when I clicked on that account it said > Advanced security settings for msmsgs.exe account unknown S- 123456789. This account under permissions has only 2 check marks > Terminate and Set information are the only ones checked. The unknown account has a check mark which is listed as Special Permissions. I have messenger disabled on this system and file sharing or it should be and I don't use any p2p software.

When I go to > Control Userpasswords2, this account does not show up, User Accounts > Admin. > ME, which should be the only accounts on this system since I'm the only one who uses this computer.

Would this unknown account be from Microsoft?

Why when I click on preview post button, I get a V - Bulletin message telling me to login > when I click the back button my post is their and it says "Logged in as Winnipeg"?

Re: User Accounts

The only account that Microsoft adds is with the .NET Framework.

This is ASPNET and is a User account.

That being said you might want to run a HijackThis log by our Pros over in their section.

There is a known Msmsgs.exe(agobot-nl Worm) but I myself do not know what affects it creates.
