    I went to check my Analytics, and I found out that I now have TWO accounts.
    The second new account says UA-xxxxxxx.
    Where did it come from?
    Should I delete it?

    I searched for "UA-xxxxxxx", and there was one site returned - a Chinese music site. I found my "new account number" in the source code. What does this mean?

    Are you running any strange scripts/codes?

    I wouldn't know how. I barely get by with my HTML.

    I am wondering if it has to do with "integrating" my AdSense into my Analytics, something that I don't want to do.
    Especially since I just got 500 channels.

    When I look at my stats, I get -
    "See new AdSense traffic reporting in your Analytics account. Link Accounts now!"

    I did click on the "Link Accounts Now" link, but I just looked around. I clicked on NOTHING.
    If you click on the "Link Accounts" button, are you AUTOMATICALLY given a "new account"?

    EDIT: I found this -

    YES! Same as me! What is going on? Where do these MAGICALLY GENERATED accounts come from?
