Hello,

I was wasting my life away on the internet yesterday, and found this ace credit card comparison tool thing, which asked me a series of questions like: 'would you prefer a card with x% starting rate and y% typical, or y% start rate and x% typical', plus loads of other cool questions about preferences and credit history.

Only, being very stupid, I did the questionnaire, thought oooh I'll come back later, the went on Ebay for about 3hrs and cleared it from my internet history. Now I can't find it again - I thought it was on Motley Fool, but can't find it in there now.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about - please help, i am about to throw the laptop out the window :mad:

    Isn't it still in your "history"?

    Alternatively, try typing "a" after the www. bit and see what autofill throws up. If this doesn't work try "b" and so on up to "z". Keep going until you recognise the site you were on.

    Will this work, or am I talking rubbish!!?
