This holds the User part of the Registry, each user has there own
Registry settings. You can view it contents automatically using
RegEdit and expand the HKEY_CURRENT_USER.
There is a NTUser.Dat.Log file as well which I believe is a
transaction log of some sort.
DO NOT edit these files directly as you can desctory all your
settings!
