It's whats known as a "file extension" File extensions are the last three/four letters after the dot of a file name, and it defines what program is used to open the file.

Files ending with .mp3, usually open with Windows Media Player. Files ending with .doc, can be opened with MS Word. Some extensions are proprietary, such as the .pdf extension which can only be opened by Adobe Reader.
