XP cached pages

deantn · November 24th, 2006

I need to be able to get a few pages from the cached pages. How do I go about doing that?
I am using Netscape browser7.2 and need to be able to get a few pages that I was on a few days ago. Searching on the browser history takes me to the page but shows the current page not the page I was on a few days ago. I need to be able to look at the older page to be able to prove something my bank says is not possible. I know Windows saves the pages but have no idea how and where to start looking for them. Any help?

I'm not sure about Netscape, but in IE the files are stored in the Temporary Internet Files folder in your Documents and Settings.

Ack...I haven't used Netscape since FF came out. I can't help you there. I did find this page doing a Google search. Maybe it can lead you in the right direction.

By revisiting the same page again you probably over written the cached files with the newer version.

To find out where are your temporary files, go to Tools->Preferences->Advanced->Cache. On the right pane you should see something like "Cache directory" and in the text box should be written a directory (starting with C:\Documents and Settings\)

Your files should be there. However, Netscape 7 being based on the gecko core, I highly doubt you'll be able to find any useful information there.
