This is more a question of: has anyone seen this before?

I have only recently setup PRTG to monitor our 25 servers, I added two "local LAN" SQL 2008 (win 2008 server) WMI sensors, I used the local server admin account on each sensor (same on each), now both servers have the local admin account set to "change password at next login" seems a bit of a coincidence? both servers were fine for the last year until the sensors were added (I have removed them now), and for it to happen on both at the same time?

one of the servers has actually now stopped SQL 2008 working (its a TFS2010) and it says the trial version has expired? we never used a trial version on that server, I was just wandering if anyone had seen a similar issue? all other servers (W2003) seem ok, but none of them are using SQL.

is it a security issue on W2008?
