ASP.NET with a "." and not ASPNET ?

Sure, you have been hacked. There is a user account with the name ASPNET
that come with the installation of the .NET Framework but it's not ASP.NET
and, also, it doesn't have Local logon permission or Terminal Server logon
permission; so you shouldn't see it at the logon page.

(To see the permissions for accounts on WinXP, open "Local Security Setting"
from the Administrative Tools, then Local Policies --> User Rights
Assignment. You will see that ASPNET account (if it's on your machine) is
not part of "Log on locally" group and is part of the "Deny logon locally"
and "Deny logon through Terminal Services" group.)
