My WinXP "WINNT/FONTS" folder contains Microsoft's Open type "Franklin Gothic Medium & Italic." A utility I run tells me there is no Registry key for these two fonts. 

In Explorer each time I delete these fonts, after a couple seconds the fonts pop-back into the folder. Strangest thing I've ever seen. 

I don't use these fonts. Anyone know anything about this? Curious!
