I have a router with an interface programmed called Loopback99
There are several reasons why a loopback interface could be there...OSPF, as you said, uses a loopback address as its RouterID if one is present...DLSW and RSRB could use it... an unnumbered interface may use it also, because a loopback interface never goes down. Be careful before you remove it...
