Description
===========

MozillaHistoryView is a small utility that reads the history data file
(history.dat) of Firefox/Mozilla/Netscape Web browsers, and displays the
list of all visited Web pages in the last days. For each visited Web
page, the following information is displayed: URL, First visit date, Last
visit date, Visit counter, Referrer, Title, and Host name.
You can also easily export the history data to text/HTML/Xml file.



System Requirements
===================

This utility works on any version of Windows, From Windows 98 to Windows
Vista. You can use this utility even if Firefox/Mozilla is not installed
on your system, as long as you have the history file (history.dat) that
you want to inspect.

DLL files. Just copy the executable file (MozillaHistoryView.exe) to any

history.dat filename from Explorer into the main window of
