adjunct files - what are they?

what are the automatically created files iPhotolock.data, iPhoto.ipspot, and iPhoto.db?
what do they do? if i delete them while trying to reconstruct the nonfunctioning iPhotolibrary associated with them, will I cause trouble?

MacBook and iMac G5(on10.4.11), Mac OS X (10.5.1)

These are all part of the iPhoto Library installation. It is strongly advised that you do not move, change or in anyway alter things in the iPhoto Library Folder as this can cause the application to fail and even lead to data loss

If you're trying to reconstruct a non functioning library for v5 of iPhoto see this article:
