Parameter obsolete

Hello list,
This question is not a matter or life or death but a curiosity I have. I´m working with Oracle 8.1.6 and NT. Each time I open the database, I get the next message in the XXXALERT.log :
      Obsolete system parameters with specified
values:
      distributed_lock_timeout

I included it the init.ora file following a friend advice, but i have read that it has no sense in this Oracle version, so, could anybody tell me if I can delete it?
TIA
