Large (2GB) .bookmark file - what is it?


I was looking to free space on one of my disks today and found a large, hidden file in one directory. Its name is .bookmark and its size is 1.95 GB!

Does anyone have any idea what it is? I've looked around, but I can't get Google to search for exactly ".bookmark," so I'm at a loss.

Thanks!

What is the name of the directory that the file is in? That may give a clue as to what program created the file.
