The System Account information has been cached as your default login by the browser. Find the login cookie and delete it.

I'm logged in as usual on my laptop on the domain with my own log in (domain\unaz) When I go to the SharePoint site, instead of the top right hand corner saying, "Welcome Uzma Naz", it says "Welcome System Account". The only way I can get my name shown is by by using the "log in as a different user" function using the browser. Q: Is there a “System Account” alias tied to your user name? A: Do you mean within Central Administration under Operations - Policies? No, my name is not listed here. Is there anywhere else I should check out? Q: are you saying that if you login through the UI as a different user, and supply your personal credentials, the result is “Welcome System Account”? A: When I click on "Welcome System Account" and log in as myself, my name is shown. But have to change this every time I log in. Wilson, I'm on Vista and a dedicated SharePoint admin account was used to install SharePoint, there is a dedicated application pool account too... I'm attending the Unified Communications event in London tomorrow so will ask the MVPs there to see if they have seen this before. Thanks for all the replies!
