If that were true, wouldn't I see "newuser" in CP's "User Accounts"?

I have accts that don't show up in the Control Panel/User Accounts but they do show up if one right clicks on My Computer then selects Manage the goes to Local Users & Groups or one could go to Start/Run & type in "lusrmgr.msc". I don't know any professional people that use the Control Panel/User Accounts as they all use lusrmgr.msc instead.
lusrmgr.msc is not available with XP Home.
Here is a registry tweak that adds "User Accounts 2" to the Control Panel & it will give you all the info you need to know about all the users.

=============begin copying here=================

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{98641F47-8C25-4936-BEE4-C2CE1298969D}]
@="User Accounts 2"
"InfoTip"="Starts The Windows 2000 style User Accounts dialog"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{98641F47-8C25-4936-BEE4-C2CE1298969D}\DefaultIcon]
@="%SystemRoot%\\\\System32\\\\nusrmgr.cpl,1"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{98641F47-8C25-4936-BEE4-C2CE1298969D}\Shell]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{98641F47-8C25-4936-BEE4-C2CE1298969D}\Shell\Open]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{98641F47-8C25-4936-BEE4-C2CE1298969D}\Shell\Open\command]
@="Control Userpasswords2"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ControlPanel\NameSpace\{98641F47-8C25-4936-BEE4-C2CE1298969D}]
@="Add Userpasswords2 to Control Panel"

=================end copying here=================

Copy N Paste the above into notepad then save out as UserAccts2.reg. Once saved then launch it to incorporate into your Registry & Control Panel. Try it, you'll like it.
