a file create and/or mod timestamp can be programmaticly modified (i.e. falsified) as well.

Yep, and it's easy.

Here, try it. Double-click on the time on the bottom right-hand corner of your screen.

Change it from today's date to the same date in 2007.

Create a document, edit it, and save it. It'll be time stamped in 2007.

Just be sure to change the year back to 2009 when you're done or when you send an email out from Outlook, Eudora, etc., no one will be able to find your message as it would be chronologically arranged with any other emails from two years ago.

my-o-my, i forgot the most obvious and easiest (no programming exp necessary) way to "falsify" a timestamp. Thanks!

Without a doubt, for me, there is reasonable doubt as to the Barry Kenyan doc being a fake. It's at least as good as the pic of the short form we all know so well.
