It's a feature. The main use is for passing options to a CGI script, so
you can do /cgi-bin/blah.pl/option1/option2 and the script will be able
to get the value "/option1/option2". I think you may be able to do the same
thing with SSI in a standard html page.
As for how to stop it, no idea. There may be an option in Apache to turn it
off, or you might be stuck with it.
