Index.dat for a particular user will be reset to 'empty' (~48k) as soon
as the user logs on, if it does not already exist. At the same time all
temporary index files are deleted.
The cookies version works differently - if it doesn't exist, the
existing cookies are used to build a new one, so the size depends on
what cookies are around.
I'm not sure what happens with the 'history' version, but it'll be one
of those two things for sure.
Note that each user has (normally) all three index.dat's, and you can't
delete them for the currently logged on user (but an admin can delete
someone else's).
