Is there any significance to naming a folder “Lost and Found”?

Hi, I have been removing old unnecessary data from a Windows 2003
Server w/ SP2. I created a folder called “Lost and Found”. If I was
not entirely sure if I could remove a folder I moved it to the “Lost
and Found” folder to be dealt with later.

Here is the odd part. Overnight on three occasions folders, that
obviously contained production data, have been moved into my new “Lost
and Found” folder. I did not move the folders. None of our other
staff have moved the folders. Is there some significance to naming a
folder “Lost and Found” that I am not aware of? I have searched
TechNet and Google and cannot find any significance to naming a folder
“Lost and Found” in this context.

I have checked all of our logs. I see no evidence of a malicious
prankster. In the mean time I have renamed my “Lost and Found” folder
to something else and setup auditing on access for the folder.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
John
