www directory turned into web?

Hello,
Over the past several years, we have had problems with the www
directories on several random times suddenly becoming set as webs for
no particular reason. This is a problem because when it is set as a
web, the directory disapears from the FTP view and you have to manually
access it. I thought this had to have been some weird Frontpage issue
that it implements to help protect the user from themselves, but now
I'm not so sure.

I have 2 questions:
1) Why does it do this?
2) How can I make the directory NOT a web so that it once again appears
in FTP clients.
