Question about mysqlhotcopy

I am fairly new to using this tool so please excuse my ignorance.

My understanding is that this tool locks the tables then copies them for you. However, while I am backing up the database, I can still use my forum and add new posts. Am I missing something here?

Also, when it first starts, I see a file called

sql-2484_fe5e.MYD

This is not in the db. What is this file?

Thanks in advance,

JT
