Folder Problem

I am using MS Expressions as my editor and I've uploaded the Gallery3 directories via a seperate FTP program. I am not using MS Expressions to do any editing of the Gallery3 directories.

When I go to publish the website MS Expressions creates sub directories called "_vti_cnf". After publishing the website Gallery3 gets a strange header at the top of all the pages it seems to be parsing the "_vti_cnf" sub directories. If I go and delete all of the "_vti_cnf" sub directoies in /gallery3/modules/gallery it removes the header. I have attached a picture of the header.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
