	To remove a user account (FredQuimby, who logs in as "fred"): If you are using a `.htpasswd` file, edit the `.htpasswd` file to delete the line starting `fred:`
Added:
> >	Warning: Do not use the Apache `htpasswd` program with `.htpasswd` files generated by TWiki! `htpasswd` wipes out email addresses that TWiki plants in the info fields of this file.
	Remove the `FredQuimby - fred` line from the Public.TWikiUsers topic Remove `FredQuimby` from all groups and from all the `ALLOWWEB/ALLOWTOPIC...` declarations, if any. *Note:* If you fail to do this you risk creating a security hole, as the next user to register with the wikiname FredQuimby will inherit the old FredQuimby's permissions. [optional] Delete their user topic Public.FredQuimby.
