Opening index.dat file.

Miguel Duarte · #1 Jan 20, 2006, 08:46 AM

Hello, i'm writing this thread hoping someone can help me.

I was trying to open the index.dat file located in the temporary internet files folder, but using notepad, the information appears unformatted and encrypted.

Is there any way (program) to open this file and see the information with a cleaner look (with the dates and time of access as well as the websites visited).

Thanks for any help.

Have a nice day...
