removed, esp. for cause rather than through normal attrition. &#8220;<span class="quote">He
got disusered when they found out he'd been cracking through the school's
Internet access.</span>&#8221; The verbal form <span class="firstterm">disuser</span> is live but less common. Both usages
probably derive from the DISUSER account status flag on VMS; setting it
disables the account.
