Ever since I loaded Frontpage 2002 on my PC, all of my
folders, including my desktop shorcuts now containa file
name "_vti_cnf." What are these and how do I get rid of
them?

The _vt* files & folders are configuration files for your FP webs and you should leave them alone

They shouldn't be
- Unless you somehow made your hard drive your root web (C:\) in FP by selecting the C:\ as the location for your FP Web

If you did you will have major system problems!

Open FP and File Open Web (or File Recent Webs) to open the location of your disc based web
IF it just show C:\, the right click the Root and select Delete
WARNING!!!!!!
READ THE SCREEN CAREFULLY
Select the Option To Just remove FP web information from the web

If you select the wrong option you will wipe out your hard drive!
