Sparda Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 You can't trace a file just from the file (well, most of the time). If it's hosted on a web server there might be a time stamp as to when it was uploaded, but that can be falsified any way. Best approach to tracking files is to look at all server logs you have access to with regard to communication and file access, look at user logs of all the users that have access to that file and, of course, email and web access logs for all the users that have access to the file.
