With *.dat files they can be nuked when booted into DOSmode.
Windows protects all the *.dats so without Windows running you
should be able to nuke it. Occasinally I nuke the hidden history in Windows.
Its hidden from Windows and DOS. If you want to see it open a DOSPrompt
and CD to c:\windows\history do a "dir" and you see _no_ folder named
"history.ie5", now CD to c:\windows\history\history.ie5 and do a "dir" you
can now see a file "index.dat". Unnukable via Windows but nukable via DOSmode.

For fun do "edit index.dat" and you can see how far back that history file goes.

Btw, that is one of the files Evidence Elliminator nukes and that is their big secret.
Nuke it yourself and save the money.
