Hello
In one of our 2003 servers, I find that there exists a user "microsoft"
which belongs to the Administrators group, and is running logon.scr (using
sysinternals process explorer). Is this normal or some kind of trojan? I've
never seen it before.
TIA

Hello OscarArg,

No that's not normal. I would immediately disable that account and check
where it is used and who has created that.

Best regards
