Hello,

Is there anyway I can access WHICH documents / driver were accessed on my PC
while I was away?

Please note : I have the recent documents 'disabled'.
I am the administrator of the PC.

I tried running a search on which files were 'modified' while I was away,
but that was not very comprehensive.

Is there any backdoor to access the same? For example, any kind of log file
that Windows XP keeps of user activity logs?

Any help would be deeply appreciated.

Thank you

You could always look in the event logs for dates that your antivirus was
started... & that will indicate if your machine was used whilst you were
away

I already know that someone has accessed my PC.
I just wish to know which files / folders have been accessed during the
period of login.

Doesn't Windows XP maintain its own logs of user activity?

No it doesn't log all activity. You could look at individual file time
stamps.
