When installing cygwin, the following accounts get included in the
/etc/passwd file, and I am a bit curious about them:

Everyone:*:0:0:,S-1-1-0::
SYSTEM:*:18:18:,S-1-5-18::

Why are they created, and what are the side effects of removing them from
/etc/passwd?  I looked around in the FAQ's, and could not find anything on
this.

Thanks in advance for the assist!
