Hi Guys,

Recently I noted that after changing user on my Power Mac G5 (Tiger 10.4.11) in the account (profile) window on the upper right corner there is one more account named "System Administrator". There is no such account in my Mac. I have one administrator account and two users accounts. In the system preferences such account does not exist. Eventually I find out that my root account is unabled. It shouldn't . I go to administrative account and disable it. Now everything seems to be fine. Just wondering... Is it possible the root account to be unabled by itself? What is your guess on this strange case. Please - let me know. I do have some explanation but will appreciate any opinion on that "mystery".
