How to View the Browser History
Each of the most popular web browsers--including Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and Apple Safari--contains a history feature. Every time you visit a website with one of these browsers, the program records the visit and stores the information in a log file. When you want to return to a website, you can view your browser history to see every site you have visited.
