_vti_cnf  For each HTML page and graphics file in a FrontPage-extended web,
there is a configuration file of the same name. Each configuration page
contains a set of name-value pairs, identifying such things as the last
author to edit a page or the editor associated with a file.

I *believe* if you are not now and never plan to author or publish your
pages with FrontPage, you can probably delete it.
