Securing my XP pro desktop.. index.dat?

[Guest jc]

Running XP Pro at work.

 

Domain Admins are able to access my Desktop. I can tell some users

have accessed my machine from new directories in \documents and

settings.

 

I've removed some of those directories, but one of them tells me the

file index.dat is in use, but I can't find that file in the Documents

and Settings user subdirectory. What does this mean?

 

How can I tell the last time a user has logged into my machine?

Index.Dat is a database component of Internet Explorer.

 

Unless logging is enabled, one way to determine user access

is in each profile folder examine the date stamp of NtUser.Dat
