after installing .net 1.1 i find i have an extra user in my user accounts and it has its own password.
how do i or do i need to disable this or delete it.
any help is cool

Its fine.

Its part of the install.

Don't worry about it :wink:

Can anyone tell me what is this extra account, and why do i have it?

Also when i installed the update, zonealarm said a couple of applications were connecting to the internet, which I allowed it to do since I assumed it needed to download something extra. Is this true? Im sure microsoft wouldnt be collecting personal data since it says they wont on the update site?

oooo... me not installing .NET 1.1, until i clear this out.. :o

Ooooo me not installing .net 1.1 till I know what its for

Well ive been in conversation on the microsoft site and:

This new profile is in order to run ASP.net applications securely, such as Visual Studio.net. If you do not run any of these then you can delete it (although unadvisable) but it can not be dissabled.

.net 1.1 can be uninstalled from the add/remove application for windows if you dont like it, and it installs along-side .net 1.0, so if you uninstall, you will be left with .net 1.0 still intact on the machine.

Just what I was told but hope it helps

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ADVISE .IVE DESIDED NOT TO DELETE IT BUT I HAVE FOUND A WAY OF DISABLING IT
MY COMPUTER RIGHT CLICK AND MANAGE USER ACCOUNTS DISABLE .
