Same as what Adam told you, you screwed up by copying everything.
You essentially did everything the Files and Transfer wizard does.
ONLY copy the data files, that's mostly the My Documents folder,
but if you look harder you can find email files, and bookmarks and copy those as
well.
So delete the newly created account, and do it over.
