Disable and Rename Administrator Account

The Administrator account is the most important account on the computer. Users should not be using the computer under the Administrator account. That just is not a good security practice for anyone that is running Windows XP Professional and has sensitive data on their computer. I like to disable my Administrator account and rename it, so that anyone trying to get in with that account and at that privilege level will not be able to. To disable the account, perform the following steps:

1. Click the Start button and select Run.

2. Key in lusrmgr.msc and click OK.

3. When you have the Local User and Group application on your screen, Click on User and just right-click the Administrator and select Rename. Give your administrator account a new name, such as admin123.

4. Next, disable the account by right-clicking on Administrator and selecting Properties.

5. Check the Account Is Disabled box.

6. Click Apply and OK to save your changes.

Rename and Assign password guest account

Windows XP includes a guest account that is disabled by default. However, at some time, this account may be enabled by an application. If you have Windows XP Professional, I recommend that you disable this account using the old Windows 2000 Local User and Group application. Just in case it becomes enabled again, I recommend that you rename the guest account and also assign it a password. Follow these steps to disable the guest account:

1. Click the Start button and select Run.

2. Key in lusrmgr.msc and click OK.

3. The Local User and Group application will launch. click on user account and Right-click the Guest username and select Set Password.

4. You will be prompted with a warning screen. Just click Proceed.

5. Type a complex password in both boxes and click OK.

6. The password has now been set. Next, rename the account by right-clicking it and selecting Rename.

7. Type in a new name, such as Disabled, and click Enter to save the changes.

The vulnerable guest account is now less of a problem.
