Very urgent! Need to retrieve some data! Help


Ok! I was writing some email in Yahoo for over an hour. Finally I decided to save the draft just in case. And in the next moment something happened and I lost everything. The internet connection is still here (I am with cable), but my letter is nowhere to be seen. I tried going back in my history which usually works in MS Windows and IE. The letter is gone!

Do you know if I can access the content of my RAM memmory and somehow retireve my letter? Or do you have any ideas. I won't restart my PC and I am still in my Yahoo mailbox.

Pls, share your ideas

10x, Kalo

P.S. and by the way, it is strange that after I lost my letter, the look of my yahoo mailbox change to some old different design

If hitting the back button didn't work, I don't know of a way to retrieve it. But for future reference, if I'm working on a long or important email, I copy and paste into a text editor and save it on my hard drive periodically or write it in a text editor all together.
