Default Changing admin account name

I have a problem with an XP Pro installation, a zealous tech decided to set
the computer up without my knowledge, and set the initial admin account name
to 'sa'. I needed the admin account name to be something specific. I have
since changed the name of the account to what it needed to be, but I still
see references to the old 'sa' account name all over the place.

For instance, the folder c:\Documents and Settings\sa\ can not be renamed.
As well, whenever you log off, the Start menu says "Log off sa". There appear
to be many places where the 'sa' account name is used for certain values.

Is there any solution to resetting all old values to new values using the
new account name?
