There is another method!

Actually (and I believe I learned this from OS X Hints), there is another way to remove a user from both the Login Window and the Fast User switching menu.

After creating your new User, open the NetInfo utility and remove the person's Full Name...leaving only the short name. The only evidence that the user exists is the home folder and even that can be made invisible using a utility like XRay. The list of Accounts in System Preferences however, will still reveal the existence of this user.

Look here for full details.
