My problem is the following:

I need to delete a user on my system. I'm to be the
administrator on my system but cannot delete the user.
I've gone to start, settings, control panel and double
clicked user accounts but still cannot delete the user and
I'm not the admistrator. I have just found out by looking
at the microsoft help page that I'm set up as a work group
and not domain. I have only one computer in my home. Why
is it set as work group? How do I change it to domain and
make myself the administrator?

Thanks for your response and help!
