I can tell you that my Install only uses 15gb of 100gb drive.  I can also tell you that I don't see the ifconfig.core file on my system.  That does not mean however that you don't have a plugin installed or something that I do not.

I do not know the content of that file but if it is a core dump, it is safe to delete.
