    Is their a way to track what folders where navigated through. I've seen this: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/files/MonitorFolderActivity.aspx Where it's nice for detecting what paths files were created in, etc. but i'm looking for detection of "exploring" of folders.

      In order to do that you will need to hook various IO methods. Here is a library for hooking them: EasyHook - The reinvention of Windows API hooking[^]

          Simply you can monitor the LastAccessTime of a System.IO.DirectoryInfo Object.
