Removing duplicate pages, pdf's, gif's etc.

I am cleaning up my website of duplicate folders, files, etc.
Several questions:

1. Is there an easier way than what I have been doing -- selecting each file
in folder view -- checking out the hyperlinks and deleting those that do not
have a hyperlink going to the page. I am assuming that if no pages are being
linked to a page or file, I can delete it. Is there something else I need to
take into consideration?

2. I have some gif and jpg files that are in two separate folders -- they
each have hyperlinks going to them. My question -- if I move one to the same
folder as the other and say yes, replace -- will I lose the hyperlinks of the
one replaced? You may have answered this with the answer to question #1, but
is there a better way to delete the duplicates of these?

3. If I am doing #2 correctly and I will lose the hyperlinks of the gif or
jpg replaced, do I have to go to each page and link to the one I want to keep
and then delete the duplicate?

I tried to search to see if questions of this nature have been asked and
answered previously, but nothing came up.

As long as you move the content around within a current open FP web via FP, then FP should update
all references, unless the references are within script tags, etc.

Just be aware that the Hyperlinks view will Not show any links that are in scripts (mouseovers)
