Pre Existing System Administrator
T here is a pre existing system administrator on my windows. I can't do anything I can even change the time (which by the way is wrong). I keep getting an error message that says I do not have administrator privilledges but I never put an administrator on here. My aunt downloaded windows on here but never put an administrator on it. So the windows program she installed must have had an existing administrator .. Help me get rid of it please..............

no she said she didn't, I think it's some kind of a virus or something. I can't even download games. I tried to download world of war craft I got all the way through a 19 hour download just to say at the end that I didn't have to priviledges and the file would be deleted.
