    So you guys MIGHT have seen the post I made about my frozen account.

    I'm trying to get it back (it should really be NO problem whatsoever). However, I don't know the birthday. I feel like KIND OF a moron, because I thought i had it written SOMEWHERE in my gmail. Not there, can't find it. It's not in my msn convo history, in 4 different hard drives that I checked. Rachel checked her whole computer too.

    Now, I changed my userlookup yesterday, meaning i would have been on the page that shows my birthday. I was wondering if there's any way of viewing firefox pages you've recently viewed. Of course, I can't just go to "user info" page, because my account was frozen. What I need is like an in-computer cache of my firefox recent pages.

    disconnect your internet and try viewing in offline mode

    Pretty sure that only works, if you actually saved the page, no?

    pretty sure it works
    I have internet issues all the time so my FF constantly goes into offline mode
    but I can still see all the pages I've been to recently...exactly as I left them last

    like it would go into offline mode or the page won't load?

    actually I just tried it
    it should work unless the page is no longer in your cache or whatnot :S

    You can read it by going there and you using ctrl+F. It works for me, just make sure you are on Offline mode though...
