These are the InnoDB data and log files. They are there because probably you have the 
InnoDB feature switched on.
You can delete them (all of them) safely, if you do not use InnoDB tables, but if you 
don't swicth off the InnoDB feature (in my.cnf for example), the system will recreate 
them after restarting the MySQL server.
