Vinetto extracts the thumbnails and associated metadata from the Thumbs.db
|
||
|
|
files.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Windows systems (98, ME, 2000, XP and 2003 Server) can store thumbnails
|
||
|
|
and metadata of the picture files contained in the directories of its FAT32
|
||
|
|
or NTFS filesystems.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The thumbnails and associated metadata are stored in Thumbs.db files.
|
||
|
|
The Thumbs.db files are undocumented OLE structured files.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Once a picture file has been deleted from the filesystem, the related thumbnail
|
||
|
|
and associated metada remain stored in the Thumbs.db file. So, the data
|
||
|
|
contained in those Thumbs.db files are an helpful source of information
|
||
|
|
for the forensics investigator.
