    I was peeking around in Control Panel, Credential Manager, and found a long list of names. It states: Store credentials for automatic logon, then Windows Vault.

    Under "Windows Credentials" there is a long list of names and all were modified on 5/8/2011. There are about 40 of what looks like computer logon user names.

    Examples: Brad-PC, KickAss, Hollywood-PC, MATTS-LAPTOP, MEDIACENTER-PC , Owner-PC, SARAHS-LAPTOP, etc.

    When you click on each of these, they look like this:

    Internet or network address: Brad-PC
    User name: Brad-PC\HomeGroupUser$
    Password: ********
    Persistence: Local Machine
    Edit Remove from vault

    This is very suspicious, as I have no idea where this all came from. There has been suspicious activity on my laptop lately, so I was peeking around a bit and found the above info.

    Why are those users on my laptop?

    Thanks
