A typical User class
I would like to create a User Object that is able to login to a site, and administer (add, delete, update) the user account.
What are the typical Properties and Methods (attributes and operations) that would make-up such an object? This is a web application.
There are many different ways one could do this, but what would be a good OOP approach?

If a user attempts to access a restricted page, the .net membership server redirects the user to the login page, at which point they can either login or sign up.

Just make sure when you're storing those passwords you're storing them as a salted hash. See my comment above.

I also accepted my own comment because understanding the concept of what an object should be allows one to go further than preexisting examples, however, having real-life examples (Microsoft's Membership Class) allows one to see how the experts do it, though they tend to be geared mainly towards the advanced corporate environment, and for the most part my needs are at the basic to intermediate level.

In response to your 2 questions, the passwords will be stored in SQL Server, and it is likely that I will need to determine user activity online.
