I have just cleaned a worm from my computer, I realised I had one when the name of the registered user (Me) had changed to "not you, no longer", anyway got rid of the virus, but the registered user's name has stayed the same is there anyway I can change the name back to mine. Maybe through the registry?

Thanks in advance

It´s done the same way you would do it in 98, see: http://www.dzfx.com/workshops/list/2/Windows_XP_Tips/#11
Hope this is helpful.
