Replication fails, using strange username to connect to subscriber

$

I've configured a push subscription on an SQL Server 2000, to replicate a database to an SQL Server 2008. I've added a user (rdem) on both servers using SQL Authentication, and gave the user sufficient permissions on the (empty) database on the SQL Server 2008. I had to restart the SQL Server 2008 because I switched to mixed authentication instead of only Windows Authentication. Everything seemed to work fine.

That was only meant as an excersise though. I removed the database on the SQL Server 2008, removed the user on both servers, and removed the push subscription on the SQL Server 2000. I redid all steps as mentioned before, created a new user on both servers named PIDRepl, etc... Unfortunately, it no longer works.

The SQL Server 2000 cannot connect to the 2008, because apparently it's still using the old user, "rdem". A bit strange, since I removed that user, and it's nowhere listed in any configuration dialog for my replication.

Any idea?
