As I've said before, I'm not much of an infrastructure guy.  And tonight, I proved it again.  I have a new Windows XP machine and had been working under the Administrator account.  Due to a sudden Outlook issue (not able to connect to our Exchange server), I created another account in order to have a fresh profile.  After I made the account and logged in, the Adminstrator account seem to disappear from the login screen and even from the User Accounts screen.  At first, I thought maybe this was some new security feature in Windows XP, but after doing some reading I found that this has been a standard feature in Windows XP.  And then I found this MCSEworld site which included some background facts and a way to enable the Administrator's account.
