Data at the root level is invalid. Line 1, position 1 in MOSS,WSS

Hi,
Today when I working on wss 3.0 / MOSS site suddenly I got an error saying , "Data at the root level is invalid. Line 1, position " . Then I come to know I have open one html file from virtual directory in SharePoint Designer, SharePoint designer automatically geneates some folder inside this directory which is the cause of an above error. so when I deleted this folder named "_vti_cnf" then site works fine..
hope will work for you... and you will take care in feature before openning files in SharePoint designer from your web application virtual directory...
