I installed DB2 9.5.1 a while back on Windows XP. After completing that
installation, whenever I open Firefox, I get asked which profile I want to
use for Firefox, my default one or DB2_LP.

Why did the DB2 installation create this DB2_LP profile and what is the
benefit? Should I be opening Firefox with the DB2_LP profile any time that I
want to look at online Help information for DB2?? What negative
consequences, if any, would there be if I deleted the DB2_LP profile?

Actually it is one of the "post installation steps" (Windows only) to get
rid of Firefox profiles like this.
Read about it in the Info Center:
