SID security folder permissions for deleted AD user



My network necessarily has many users that are assigned explicit security
rights on several folders. When one of these users is deleted in AD, I have
checked the security settings on the folders and find that the user name has
been replaced by an SID with the same permissions. Do these SIDS for the
deleted users get purged from the system automatically? If so, what triggers
this event? If not automatically, is there an easy way to perform this
function? Thanks in advance
