does Firefox store pages you've visited and if so where.I am looking for a page on a site I looked at that has since been changed and wondered if the old one would still be available on my computer to see

doesnt matter just remembered that I have FF set to delete the cache etc when closing

For future reference, with Firefox open, try Ctrl+H, Baz.

yeah that works thanks also found that about:cache in the address bar > enter brings up the cache list with links to where youve been

Yup. About:config is even more intreating, but beware the warning!

Interesting, even.

even with cache etc disabled you can still extract some information from the sqlite databases, which might be of interest
