SYMPTOMS

After you apply a new theme to a page, files from the old theme remain in the following folders:

   _themes
   _overlay
   _derived

CAUSE

When you apply a theme, the necessary files are copied to your Web. When you apply a new theme to a separate page in the Web, the necessary files for that theme are also copied to the Web. When you remove the theme, or apply a new theme to the page, the original theme files are retained.

RESOLUTION

To remove the theme components that you no longer need, recalculate hyperlinks in the Web by following these steps:

Open your Web in FrontPage Explorer.
On the Tools menu, click Recalculate Hyperlinks.
In the Recalculate Hyperlinks dialog box, click Yes.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article.
