Debbie;
ASP.Net Machine A is a result of the installation of .Net Framework
1.1

Reasons for need:
When you run an ASP.Net application on a WebServer, not necessarily on
your
local machine, that is the account the Web Server uses for
credentials/permissions.

ASP.NET is a programming framework built on the common language
runtime that
can be used on a server to build powerful Web applications. ASP.NET
offers
several important advantages over previous Web development models:
More
information here:
http://docs.aspng.com/quickstart/aspplus/doc/whatisaspx.aspx

The ASP.NET worker process (Aspnet_wp.exe) should run with a different
and
less privileged identity than the Windows default System identity.
This
allows the process to run as a relatively untrusted user so that
hosted Web
applications do not have administrative privileges and cannot
compromise the
integrity of the server. More information here:
