SQLDebugger account..

After installing Visual Studio .NET I noticed this account in my users account. Is it needed? Whats it for?

you can debug your stored procs, UDFs etc, with visual studio.net. the program that does this runs under this account as I understand it.

I see. So I should leave it be then?

if you do any db work. Ive never messed with it but i suspect that if youre not going to be debugging your stored procs, UDFs, triggers, db stuff from within Visual Studio.NET then you could probably safely do away with it. of course, my guess is worth what you paid for it if it aint hurting you and youre not under strict security constraints id leave it.
