i accidently hit "forget about this site" in my history, and it deleted all related sites to it. i desperately need to get them back. how do i retrieve the forgotten or deleted sites from history in firefox4 ?
i use the firefox4, and when i went to my history, i right clicked to delete a certain site, and accidentally hit the last option; (forget about this site) which deleted all the similar sites to the one i clicked! i.e. if it were facebook site, all facebook sites were gone.. how do i retrieve the sites i lost in history?

Once deleted they can not be recovered.
Tony, thnx for the prompt response,, however, i didn't delete. i hit the below option which reads; "forget about this site" which is the last item in the list that appears when you right click any site in history. i was told there are open source programs that can retrieve it. how sure r u that they cannot be recovered?!
That option will delete all the data that Firefox has stored about that site including history, bookmarks, cookies and passwords. It can not be recovered.
you are right, Tony! firefox will not recover the history. i'm going through another option now, which is open-source programs like "history recoveror" & others.. crossing my fingers that it'll work, thanx for the help though :)
