You'll probably get better help from the windows installer folks
(there should be a mailing list somewhere on pgFoundry)... Have you
tried removing the postgres account? That would probably at least get
you running. The names and IDs thing sounds like a bug, but you'd
have to talk to the installer folks about that...
Perhaps the installer should do a better job of pointing people at
where to report install bugs...
