Use ISO Buster or RAR to interogate and extract the data from the ISO.\n\nBoth have a free trail period, and continue to work after it expires as long aas you put up with the pop-up box that comes up when they first start.

The answer to this question is simple, if you are using windows.  all you have to do is open "My Computer", go to the address bar, open the drop-down menu, and select desktop.  then all you have to do is go to the "Tools" menu and select "Folder options".  Then go to the Veiw tab in the window that should pop-up, and you then should see the "Hidden Files and Folders" option.  Select the "Show Hidden Files and Folders" option and you're done.  That's how you view those files.

right click on the HD icon in "My Computer", click on "format...," then read what's in the pop-up window. Kinda a hard within XP if it's the system disk.

there is no way to know how to open a .dat file unless you know what program created it. Period.

use a reverse directory or more simply, call them!  You are not doing something illegal are you?
