I tried using the Firefox addressbar search, but i can hardly remember the title of a page... My desktop search is beagle. Although it finds really very much entries, when i type "bookmark alternatives" this page is listed first so seems to work nicely. And when i remember the conversation i got the link from i can search chatlogs. Fortunately i don't have too much bookmarks. And the bookmarks are tagged intelligently (which means:works for me) and i can find everything quickly.

Internet Exporer and Firefox have a cache of visited sites as well as a history of visited urls. But this data doesn't go back for longer than 1 year. So your data is most probably lost.

Do you know of such a software? BackBrowse is like that but applicable only on Mac computers. I want to know if a similar software is available for users who uses microsoft windows using computers, is there such a software? If so, then please inform me of their website address and name of the software itself.
