DVS,

Can you delete the account through the native Local Users and Computer
Manager? Try deleting it through there:

Start > Run > "lusrmgr.msc"

When you say also that the Account won't delete, do you get any error or
warning messages when you do try to delete it?

B.t.w mshta, is a valid Windows Process, basically the user manager part of
Control Panel is what is know as an HTML Applicaiton, and it is ran using
the MsHta.exe process.

Regards
