The ones available from http://download.win-test.com/v4/databases haven't been updated for almost six years, so they will probably do you more harm than good, pre-filling exchange info without out-of-date information.  I would erase or rename them rather than rely on the data that is there, or if you can find old ARI contest logs, you can open the logs with Win-Test, then do File | Update database to update the proper .DTB files with data from your logs (start by opening the oldest ARI contest log going back to 2005).
