AHHHHH!!!! OMG!!!!! It's horrible! Terrible! Oh wait, it sounds like a site that's using FPSE (Front Page Server Extensions), as those dirs (and the mirroring files included) are created by FPSE to keep track of site changes and other stuff. If you are finding these in your published site, or a directory that was a published site, then don't worry about them. You will probably find some other directories that are hidden and have an underscore in front of them too.
