Accounts used by application pools or service identities are in the local machine Administrators group.

I am getting the Warning: "Accounts used by application pools or service identities are in the local machine Administrators group."

Using highly-privileged accounts as application pool or as service identities poses a security risk to the farm, and could allow malicious code to execute.  The following services are currently running as accounts in the machine Administrators group: SPUserCodeV4(Windows Service) 
OSearch14(Windows Service) 
SPSearch4(Windows Service) 
WebAnalyticsService(Windows Service) 

I understand that the users running these Windows Services must not be a local administrator of the server. The user I have assigned for the aforementioned Windows Services are in the following Groups in the SharePoint Server:

IIS_IUSRS
Performance Monitor Users
WSS_ADMIN_WPG
WSS_RESTRICTED_WPG_V4
WSS_WPG

Which group must I remove the user from?
