User questions...

I am new to MySQL and recently took over the MySQL from someone who
also did not know what they were doing. I recently installed
PHPMyAdmin to better manage the box but I noticed that the user table
looked like this:

User Host Password Global privileges Grant Action
Any % No USAGE No Edit
Any localhost Yes ALL PRIVILEGES Yes Edit
root % Yes ALL PRIVILEGES Yes Edit
root localhost Yes ALL PRIVILEGES Yes Edit
My question is, why is there 2 any and 2 root users? Don't I only
need the root@localhost and any@localhost? What would be the best way
for me to find out if these users are needed?

Thanks -
