I've deleted the file, and my firefox keeps working ... So I don't know what the file is for, but you can do without it.

My Microsoft Security Essentials said just before I deleted the file that it was a Win32/Coinminer ... I'm not sure what a Coinminer does, but it is best to delete the file I guess.
