How to Make Firefox Show Previews of Recently Closed Pages
During a lengthy browsing session with Mozilla Firefox, you may open and close many different pages. Although you can view a list of recently closed pages by opening the "History" menu and clicking "Recently Closed Tabs," it may be difficult to pick an individual page out from a long list. Install the FoxTab Firefox add-on to see thumbnail previews of recently closed pages, and quickly find the one you want to view again.
