Probably the extensions aren't installed which is why you are receiving the
error. Even if they are available from a host, the host may not
automatically install them on your account (or may botch the installation).
Copy Project doesn't ask for authentication, the web server does. If the
IUSR account (if it's an IIS box, or any anonymous account on another) has
the incorrect permissions such as Full read/write/delete, then you won't be
prompted for a username and password since the web server since the
anonymous account already has plenty of access to copy files.
No, you don't need to copy the _vti directories. They simply hold meta
information used by the FrontPage Server Extensions to know what is in the
particular web (such as what files and how big are they etc.)
Hope this helps,
