I think the Administrator account is only needed (or used?) for
Windows machines and then only on some (though many) of the
checks.

In 6, go to the Tools menu and then Edit Known Accounts

I don't like to leave critical accounts in there though. I don't want
the scanner to be passing passwords to untrusted clients.
