I have a random database on my account which I didn't create. It doesnt show up under the MySQL databases in cPanel but shows upo under phpMyAdmin!

Its called information schema, and I was wondering if anyone had any idea what its there for. I cannot find any way of deleting it unless i run a script command, but was unsure if it belonged to x10 :S

Information schema is the database the database uses to understand what's in the database.

Bizzarre? You bet but it's system critical. Do *NOT* mess with it.

Yes, it is created by the system and is required. Just ignore it, it doesn't count towards your database quota.
