| 655909 | 2008-04-03 21:48:00 | ccleaner deletes it but it'll come back as well Its not malware, its a windows file / used by IE |

| 655910 | 2008-04-03 22:43:00 | Index.dat, I think is used by IE to store info about visited internet sites, cookies, etc... | kahawai chaser (3545) | ||
| 655911 | 2008-04-04 02:35:00 | AFAIK, Outlook and Outlook Express also use it, probably via IE. Look for a utility called Index Dat Spy, or some such. |

| 655913 | 2008-04-08 06:21:00 | as Speedy said - CCleaner. Basicly, index.dat stores every url you've ever been to, so it gets quite large after a time. It never gets deleted when you clear "temprorary internet files etc - and even tho you think your temp internet files folder may be empty, it really is still there. Right click on the "empty" folder and select properties - how much space is used by an empty folder! LOL Use CC and it will clear it at reboot, and start again with a clean Index.dat |
