Does anyone know what these accounts are?

Server1\SQLServer2005MSFTEUser$Server1$MSSQLSERVER
Server1\SQLServer2005MSSQLUser$Server1$MSSQLSERVER
Server1\SQLServer2005SQLAgentUser$Server1$MSSQLSER VER

Should I remove them?

Thanks,
Lijun

They are used for setting registry and file permissions for SQL Server (the
idea being that when if you change a service account it doesn't have to
reapply all the permissions, it just adds the new account to the relavent
groups). It's not a good idea to remove them.
