This file is not harmless, i got it right after installing my hp dvd burner with its software. I'm guessing you only need it if you are going to burn cd's.

Used by HP CD Burners to check for driver firmware updates. I know this because it keeps telling me to update the firmware for my new drive, with which I already updated the firmware for. Seems to be a bug - I'm going to remove it I think.
