Editors’ Review

Download.com staffNovember 7, 2008

This application scans your hard drive and displays the contents of your index.dat files, but nothing more. IndexDatZap scans for cookies, histories, and temporary Internet files, after which a listing is displayed and further detailed information regarding each file is available. The program has a lackluster interface with two self-explanatory process buttons, but excludes a help file. The program can't actually clean your hard drive, rendering it ineffective in comparison to other PC-cleanup utilities. Although users will find this freeware useful in quickly scanning and locating index.dat files, it's a dud when it comes to eradicating them.

Only app that gets at the contents of these cache files.

Pros
I don't think the editor reviewed the full version cos it can scrubb index.dat files but its main feature - and I've hunted high and low for this - is the ability to see the contents of these files. There are admins out there, like moi, who have to inspect other peoples machines.
Cons
Be nice if it could find out more info on other types of data in windows files. Can't read flash memory cards.
