I have created another user account but unintentionally have assigned to it administrator priviledges. Is it possible to revoke this account?

I'm assuming you're using Win XP ... Start -> Control Panel -> User Accounts -> Select the Account ... then either change the account type to limited or delete the account

And always check if this user has not already created another backdoor account.
