Has anyone been able to find a quick way to parse out this information.
Its visible using encase as text but isn't laid out in a fashion that will make viewing or parsing out easy.

This file essentially replaces the .stg of previous versions. (best of my understanding)

Thanks

Hi,

Yes, I have a program that will extract the contents of the contacts.edb file, please email me at info@simplecarver.com if you would like a copy to play with.

It's due for release in SC Suite v3.4 along with a number of other new tools including

* Windows Vista Photo Gallery parser (Pictures.pd4)
* Media Player Player extractor (.wmdb)
* Windows 7 Sticky Notes Viewer/Extractor (*.snt)

More info www.simplecarver.com

Regards,

Tim

I think EnCase can "View File Structure" on .edb
Not sure if this is the right foramt/version that is supported…

Not for these unfortunately nik, it'll "do" it, but will just add a subfolder of unallocated and no info.

That's unfortunate. I know it only supports a sub-set of the edb's and the ntds.dit.

On the other hand now we know that the header is consistent with an EDB

I'm out of ideas now, good luck
