While the common use of the .FFO extension is for Microsoft fast search software, Adobe in the past used to denote a file associated with an image that contains information about that image. Selecting File / File Info got you to an editor that allowed such information to be captured. Current versions do this same trick using embedded EXIF data in a universal format inside the image file. The .FFO file would have the same file name as the base image file and that was how they were associated. You may be able to get at the data by opening such a file using Notepad or some other plain vanilla text editing program. It may be ( strictly speculating here ) that the data is formatted ASCII strings.
You can find an article on this subject by searching or .FFO and for "annotate your images" on the Smart Computing web site. Their discussion refers specifically to Photoshop 6.0

I was looking at my Photoshop files in Windows Explorer and I noticed some PS files that end in (*.FFO) and I don't know what they are for. The dates are back in 1999 and 2000 so they might be PS 5.0 files. Anybody know what they are?
