I have Win XP Pro.
In my Documents & Settings folder in addition to users I have created
, there are two users I did not create.
1. Default User and 2. null

Is this normal. How can I remove these two users. They are not listed
in Local users group panel in Administrative Tools.
Thanks for the help.

Default User is a system folder and you should leave it alone. It is the
template used when making new user accounts.

The "null" folder I'm not sure about. Does it appear in the User
Accounts applet in Control Panel? What is inside it? Do you have
security software installed that might have needed to create this user
account? Was this account always there? If not, when did it appear and
after you doing what? What firewall and antivirus protection do you
have in place?

Perhaps someone else will know the answer to your "null" account but it
will help you get focused help if you answer the questions in the
preceding paragraph.
