Re: API in vb.net - OpenInputDesktop and GetUserObjectInformation

The SID that's returned is: 130000055000000010620300 which isn't
like anything on this machine. The SecurityIdentifer class doesn't
recognize it as a SID either.

Shouldn't you be using the ConvertSidToStringSid function to get the
string representation of the SID instead of using your own routine?
