ACL files, delete

Question

Many Months ago i ran across a reference, some one had a script to delete the ACL files.
Does any one know if the ACL files can still be deleted.
Since that time i have erased and re installed and lost the reference.
Does any one know what i am writing about and have a reference for that script source.
Thank you.
