Are you sure they need to be defragmented?

Did you mean MFT instead of MFP?

If not, what are MFP files?

*.mfp = Macromedia Flash Paper

Hope this helps. Let us know.

The defragger that comes with XP is a "lite" version of Diskeeper. If you
want to defrag the MFT and maybe directories, think about getting the full
version of Diskeeper by Executive software, or a similar product like
Perfect Disk by Raxco.
