Problem with Windows 2000 using the Computer Management utility, when you go to Local Users and Groups, click groups, and choose Administrators. In the view it lists the Administrator, and a few other user names, but it also displays what appears to be other users in the form of maybe SID numbers? They are listed \S-1-5-21-207247691-668014067-927750060-1185 there are 2 others listed like that. Could someone please tell me why this happens, thanks.

It's happening because your PC has no connection to the network (most likely), or (less likely) cannot talk to the DC to resolve that SID into the user name....
