I've had the same problem with a slightly different twist.
I've installed W2K3 several times on a single machine, over the past year.
To the best of my knowledge, I've done so the same way each time: generally,
taking default settings.
However, after some of these installs, I can and after some other installs,
I can not find the ASPNET account. Other accounts such as NETWORK SERVICE and
IIS WPG are present in both situations.
