CFC is a Cold Fusion Component, also known as a User Defined Function, and you can either create your own, or find them available for download (some free, some require a fee.)
Typically, you would create a folder within the root of your site/application called "components" and set a mapping to that location within your application.cfc. Then, whenever you need to call that CFC, there are several ways to access functions within the CFC. My favourite is to:
<cfset queryObj = new components.myCFC().myFunction() />
<cfoutput query = "queryObj">
... your output code here...
</cfoutput>
That is CFC in a nutshell.
HTH,
