After an upgrade, it is recommended that you do a full publish from local to
remote, this will put both versions in sync. Afterwards, you can switch back
to changed pages only.

If you don't ever want the local database to be published to your remote
site, in FP 2003, you can right-click on the .mdb and mark it "do not
publish".
