deleting user accounts

[dinx]

Hi, I have seem to have two user accounts on my log in screen I do not know how I managed that

 

when I log into my main account I can not delete that new account but when I log into that new account I can delete my old account

 

how do I get rid of the new account?

Is your main account an Administrator one? If not set the type as Administrator.

dinx do you have all your Windows updates installed?

 

Microsoft Security Bulletin MS10-019 - Critical Vulnerabilities in Windows Could Allow Remote Code Execution (981210) states the following:

 

"This security update resolves two privately reported vulnerabilities in Windows Authenticode Verification that could allow remote code execution. An attacker who successfully exploited either vulnerability could take complete control of an affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights."

 

This might be a malware issue.
