Have you tried the Internet Archive?<br /><br />http://www.archive.org/<br /><br />About a quarter of the way down the page, you'll see a box marked THE WAYBACK MACHINE.<br /><br />Paste the url you're looking for into the box and press where it says Take Me Back. If it was on the internet when they did one of their scans and was not password protected, all is not lost. You'll then, if you're in luck, see a list of dates when they caught the page you want. Just click on one of the dates to see it.<br /><br />Useful, but also scary in some ways, huh? All those occasions when you made an idiot of yourself preserved for posterity.

O di immortales! Thank you endlessly, Bingley! That has enabled me to do something which I have long wished to be able to do and given me much nostalgic rejoice!
