Question USER.DAT file - what is it?

There is something called a user.dat file on my computer. It is a read-only file, 1,273KB, Created by <unknown>. It contains abuncha weird symbols and a whole bunch of names of websites I've never even been to.

Here's a sample:

--buncha symbols-CreatorGregConklin--moresymbols
--moresymbols---DescriptionWatch Annabelle in action!---

Who is this dude Greg Conklin and how did he get on my computer? Who is Annabelle? And how do I delete this file!?
