How I know this: If you format a new hard drive after booting from floppy or the Windows CD then reboot to the same CD with "boot from CD" and then "boot with CDROM support" this file is created. What it contains is a mystery but is something probably not crucial to your system's normal operation and has nothing to do in any way shape or form with Office. Just thought I'd clear that up.
