Prevent Frontpage from setting the System File Attribute

Is there any way to prevent Frontpage from setting the -S attribute when you
publish a web?

Thanks,

Set the s attribute on what?? I just checked a server based web and couldn't find any files with
the s attribute set.

Where are you publishing this web too??

When I publish a web with Frontpage 2003 on a remote server it modifies the
web folder and sets a folder attribute to System File (-S). If you do an
ATTRIB command on the web folder you'll notice the -S attribute is set or if
you Right-click on the folder and view its properties you'll notice the
Hidden attribute is grayed out. What this does is hide the folder from FTP
programs that don't list hidden folders and it also hides the folder from
some of our scripts. If I remove this attribute how will it effect the
Frontpage web?
