I think Bogdan meant that some System Restore options are known to
overwrite files with older versions of that file. Eg on Windows 7
Enterprise and Ultimate you have the option 'Restore previous versions' and
if Windows Backup is enabled it is easy to revert to an older version of a
file.

You might also want to check the location of the database file. If it is
on Windows Vista or Windows 7 with UAC and the location is in the Program
Files folder it could also mean that the actual database is in the virtual
store folder in the user profile.
