Two Files Created For Every One?

Hello,

my linux box is, for some reason, creating two files when I creat one. For example, if I create a file via the VI editor called TestFile, the box will create:

TestFile
TestFile~

Does anyone have any ideas as to why I'm getting that second file with the ~ at the end of it?

Thanks.
