Note, I think new apps created via admin are created from the 'welcome.w2p' packed version of the 'welcome' app in your /web2py/ root folder, not by copying the actual /applications/welcome/ folder. So, if the user got inserted into the packed 'welcome.w2p' file, then you'd have to replace that file to get rid of that user. Anthony
