dat is a very ambiguous extension. It can be anything from video information to plain text.
So without knowing exactly how the dat file is produced it will be hard to say what if anything can access it and retrieve data from it.
Where does this file come from? What application uses it?
How is the data inside stored?
----------------------------------
Ignorance is not necessarily Bliss, case in point:
Unknown has caused an Unknown Error on Unknown and must be shutdown to prevent damage to Unknown.

>with the access time
Http is stateless and "access time" is meaningless. You could start the day by opening, say, an IE window to Google, then proceed to open other apps and work. At the end of the day, you log off and Windows terminates IE. Have you been Google-ing all day? In general, the Web server wants to push output to you and be done with it. Your Web client displays that output, but it doesn't know what you're doing.

There is something like this but it is not free.

Thanks for the replies. I finally found one from Worked really well for what we needed, gave cookies, favorites, user account, date modified, accessed, history, and where its stored. It was a neat little program that lets you save in a text or xml file. Thanks again.
