Help remembering a deleted website

Recuva
1

I used the CCleaner, it is a great tool but I deleted a website and cannot remember exactly what it was. Is there a way to re-view or recover a website address? :angry:

the only thing i can think of, is..

you might be able to recover the temp internet files (from that site you visited) using Recuva, in the box, just search for file extensions: *.htm, *.html, *.tmp, *.txt, ect...

this will search for temp internet files, and cookies you have deleted.. if you are lucky the name of that site will pop up.

however if you have CCleaner set to 'secure deletion of files' (its in options > settings) its impossible to recover any files it deletes...

your best bet will probably be to just try to remember the site name though

try to think hard? :P

EDIT: ah, i just got a better idea. do you have a ROUTER? alot of routers keep web activity logs. if you do, type in 192.168.0.1 into your address bar to log into your router (or whatever the address is to your router) and see if it keeps web logs. mine does, maybe yours does

Thank you so much for all your help. I do have a router and will try your suggestion if the first idea does not work. It is late and I am too tired to think that hard but will try tomorrow morning. I also e-mailed a co-worker who may have the website recorded, that may fix everything quickly. :rolleyes:

192.168.0.1 isn't standard ---- 192.168.1.1 is-my Linksys router is set at that.

Mine is 192.168.1.254, so it can vary, look in you router manual or the router itself, it should tell you there somewhere.

yeah.. there's not really a standard, it's different for all routers really

i said 192.168.0.1 because i think that it is the most popular one used.. maybe i'm wrong

anyways, glad i could help

You are completely right. 192.168.0.1 is standard for most routers!
