You can disable Mariner Write's importer by pressing the command and option keys while launching FoxTrot, then check "manage third-party metadata importers". Note that these importers may also cause some troubles to Spotlight itself, so you can consider uninstalling the importer completely; type the following command in a Terminal.app window to find where this importer is installed:
mdimport -L

You need these helpers in order to use importers that are only compiled for PowerPC, or for 32-bit intel, when you are using a 64-bit machine. For example, all MS Office importers are still 32-bit only.
