Windows XP User Accounts

    Hi All

    Two questions:

    1. I reinstalled XP Home on my PC and during the install I created 3 User Accounts called Admin, Martin and Everyone.

    However, only Admin and Martin show up on the Welcome screen and in the Control Panel. Both were created with administrator privileges.

    When I try to create the 'Everyone' account via the Control Panel it tells me that the account already exists??

    Any ideas how I can make this account visible? Or even just how to delete it and try recreating it?

    2. Which is more secure? The XP 'Guest' account or creating a Limited User Account yourself?

    I always thought Guest was best but some people say otherwise! :confused:

    Cheers!
