normally windows just will not allow you to delete the last administrator account.
you can rename it to another name though, and malware might be able to mangle the database.

you can start cmd.exe as a regular user then type the command
net.exe /user
to show the names of all of the local users
or
net.exe /localgroup administrators
(to show all of the accounts that are admins)

you could also
windows key+x type r
then run
rundll32.exe keymgr.dll,KRShowKeyMgr

this will show linked accounts that also store credentials on your machine.
I do not think you have to worry about the one...

I do not think you have to worry about the one logging in to virtualapp/didlogical
that has a random username and password.
i think it is related to windows live loggins.
I actually see two usernames with random letters on my username drop down box
I guess it is for things like skype or ... (does make me nervous seeing them)

you can also use the User interface to see the local accounts (some might be disabled) windows key+x then type r
lusrmgr.msc
click on users to see the accounts, then click on the account for more info
you should be able to enable accounts from this UI
