Hi, I think this file and two others (system.dll & registry.dll) are related to firefoxportable.exe from portableapps.com

They are created by the launcher we use to make the applications (here: Firefox) portable. They are plugin files the launcher uses to do various things like displaying the splash screen, reading/writing to the registry or things like that.
