Been off line for a bit so just catching up.  I really can't remember if I 
installed the podcast software for just me or all users, normally I just 
install for just me as I'm the only person in the house capable of using 
my PC, hence I never set up a password for the PC.  My main security is 
for attacks from outside i.e. a firewall and AV.

I'm suspecting the Guest account and ASP.NET Machine account may have been 
set up by the podcast software as it incorporates Bittorrent so a person 
from outside would have to access a certain folder on my PC to upload any 
files required while I'm downloading them.  Guest account is disabled 
though.  I'm not sure what ASP.NET Machine A... is though.  I could 
probably delete the Guest Account safely, but, not sure what would happen 
if I deleted ASP.NET account.
