Usually yes. Have you ever used MSBACKUP, Doublespace/Drivespace, or Geoworks?

OP
Thanks DosFreak.
 
No. I have used neither of softs you mentioned.
One curious thing is these files have same time stamps,
07/14/1997. It seems a bit odd 'cause I installed XP recently.
Is it possible it has something to do with some kind of virus?
 
My e: partion uses NTFS so I can't take a chance to delete these
from Win98.
