That's the death cap! Get rid of it now! This is a "bumblebee" capacitor. If I'm reading the color code correctly, you can replace it with a .047 uF, 600 volt cap. This cap is connected from the hot side of the line to ground and these are bad about shorting and exploding. Like I said, change it NOW!
