Hi Swapan, I'd just add that the data you're looking for is confined to the user's PC, and thus is much more in the realm of a Desktop gadget. The iGoogle gadgets discussed in this group are pure web applications, just contained in a small iframe, and as such are well separated from desktop data.
If there was an access point, it would be through the browser that displays the page containing the gadget, not through the iGoogle gadget API itself. You could search for browser add-ons containing this functionality, but I can't say I've ever heard of one.
