In user acounts - same place that you make them. In Control Panel - User =
Accounts

thanks David,
but...
i go to control panel/user accounts and all i get is
change or add account. no remove/delete account or
anything.

my bro set up his system and account based on a username
he no longer uses, an aol address/user name that he
converted to a .net account i beleive. wants to get rid
of it.

can we add a new account for my bro with his new
username/account info, then remove the old one?

thanks
Chris

You have to be an admin, you have to be logged in under a different =
account to the one being deleted. Then select the account and one of the =
options is Delete The Account..

I'm not sure why you want to do this but type in Start Run while logged =
on as your bro
control UserPasswords2
then Advanced - Manage Passwords
