Probably best if it simply ignored the settings in the .werbprj unless 
the .session file isnt there. Then in a later version (4.0, 4.1? presuming 
most people are within two or three minor releases of the latest version) get 
it to clean the webprj files?

The webprj file doesn't store the ftp password does it?
