Browser history, what happened to it?

Going back 1000 years, well it feels that long. You had your shiny £1000+ PC with windows 95 and Internet Explorer, Netscape was an option but everyone had designed the sites for IE so some didnt work properly.
Young(er) and naive IE did the job, one thing i do miss though is the browser history.
With IE you could pick a day of the week and goto the browser history for that day and see everything and even view the pages offline to avoid corrupting the page if it had a fresh update. One of my grumbles from using Firefox. The cache is rubbish.
Any decent browser with the same history function as IE from the old days?
Thanks

Why do you want to view cached pages offline, whats the point in that?
Wanting to snoop on someone? :rotfl:0 -
As far as i can see, all the history is there in Firefox and IE 11..
If you want to view cached pages, you can do so through google by clicking the little drop down arrow next to the result ..
Dont know if this helps you atall ..

I'd imagine that the file sizes back in the late 1990s were a lot smaller, so easier to keep records for too.0
