I am wondering how I can find a site that I visted a few days ago? I looked in the history and can't locate it. It is English help for my daughter and I forgot to bookmark it? I am not very computer savvy..lol any help is appreciated.

Maybe if you didtn clean out your internet files you can look through them on the days and time you were on the site. Good luck

Did you happen to type the address right in the address bar? If you did, you can click on the arrow at the end of the address bar and it will be in the drop down list. Might be a long shot, but who knows.

Well, if you are still in need of this, this may help. I am going under the assumption that you are running windowsXP as your operating system.
Open up your windows explorer and go C:\Documents and Settings\\Local Settings
(Where would be the name that you are logged on as when you log into windows.)
Once you do that you should see a directory of folders and look under "Temporary Internet Files" or "History". Both should have plenty of stuff in there. Also, I believe the History folder is divided by days so that should help you pinpoint the file.

If you are using an operating system besides XP, then the steps will be different b/c the tree format has a different layout heirarchy. The easiest way is to do a search for ALL files with either "internet" to pull up any stashed internet directories in your system -or- you can do a search for a keyword that was part of the address of the site in the hopes that you can pull the html page from your system cache.

This is of course if you HAVE to have that specific site that you were accessing. Otherwise, I'd just google it since it provides TONS of resources there ;)

hmm, it left out part of the path..I guess the bracket symbol I was using got removed from the post as a recognize symbol..
Anyhow.. the path was C:\documents and settings\profile name\local settings.
where 'profile name' would be the name that you are logged on as when you log into windows..

actually all you have to do is go to your start menu click on search and type in Temp. It will then bring up your temporary internet files folder. Click on it and every page you visit is stored in there.
