Take a look in the Apache reference docs for mod_rewrite (exactly where you look depends on which version of Apache you are using). Then search for (a) any .htaccess files in the web-app, and (b) any Apache config files: this will be Linux-distro-dependent but somewhere like /etc/apache or /etc/httpd might be the first thing to try... You are looking for either directory-specific or system-wide Apache RewriteRule directives, especially those that contain a pattern which matches ".php3" If you can't find anything like that, then Apache ain't rewriting...
