Windows Internet Guest Account - Delete

5 Comments1 Solution586 ViewsLast Modified: 5/11/2012

I am running Windows XP, and I have a 'Internet Guest Account' that I need to remove from the system (IUSR_<computername>)....I have gone into user account management, right-clicked and deleted the account, used the 'net user' command to delete the account, I have tried re-naming the account, but upon reboot this account is back (Even after a rename, it keeps the re-named account, and makes a new one)

I need to have this account deleted, not disabled, any ideas,help PLEASE?

Thanks,

Comment
