Can anyone out there please tell me if there is any
difference between the Built in Administrator account
versus one that is created and made a member of the admin
group and only the admin group. It is a local account on
a local machine (not logging on to a domain).

To put it yet another way, are all of the rights,
privileges and behaviours the same for each?

Someone must know! If you claim that they do behave
differently, can you please direct me to the source of the
information. I need an official word on this. Not just
opinions.
Thanks
