    When you uninstall ISPCOnfig, it does not delete system accounts.

    But as you removed ISPConfigs database, ISPConfig is not able anymore to manage accounts created before you uninstalled it.

    System user accounts.

    Just delete the account. If you want to remove it completely from your system. empty the recycle bin afterwards. It may take a minute after you deleted the user, until you can empty the recycle bin.

    Never use ISPConfig and webmin together! The user is still in the ISPConfig database, you must empty the recycle bin to delete it.
