Lock Information

Looking under Locks/Object I noticed the following items:
master.dbo.spt_values
tempdb.dbo.##lockinfo75
The lock mode is X (Exclusive Insert/delete or update)
Process details show 'sa' as the user
The Databases are all working okay (with 80+ users)
Is there any way of checking what this is (presumably a temp table was created as part of the process) ?
Also what is spt_values used for ?
thanks
Gerry
This is a temp table used by one of the stored procedures EM calls when you
look up information such as locks. It's nothing to worry about.
