I have set several XP pro machines on a network via the Sysprep/Ghost cloning process and just noticed when checking some file and folder permissions that, besides Administrator,
User etc, they now also have one name that begins with a ? then a little single face followed by
S-1-5-21-2856520603-4271176276-1453689398-1003.
Each of the machines on the network also has similar security permissions for every what seems to be every file/folder entry.
The only difference in the number is that the last 4 numbers are different. Each machine has a different last 4 numbers.
Although these ? security permisssion entries might have been there since the machines were setup several weeks ago, I haven't seen them before and don't know what I am looking at. I fear that some trojan or such has given itself file permissions but maybe they are harmless.
Other pertinent info:
I recently created them using a MS Ghost 2003 cloning process. (Clone 4 machines from 1original...)
These machines have a full load of MS Visual Studio.NET 2002 on
them.
