I know that the index.dat file contains a record of all web activity
performed by Internet Explorer. Does it also contain a record of all
web activity performed by other browsers, such as Mozilla Firefox?

No, those are in their respective folders in Document and Settings (e.g.
your folder name/application data/mozilla/.......).
 
No the index.dat in question relates to Internet Explorer only. These can be
cleaned using the freeware application CleanCache (www.buttuglysoftware.com)
A link to a review i did of cleancache can be found on the buttuglysoftware
web site. At the same time buttugle also do a CleanMOCache specifically for
Mozilla.
