Drew considers himself an avid Firefox user and thinks he knows a lot about the browser and the development (sometimes more than he actually does). He downloads the alpha and beta releases and tries to use them as his main browser, sometimes to his detriment.

He is trying to find a post on the Mozillazine forums describing a workaround for a moderately annoying Firefox bug that keeps reformatting his hard drive and causing his printer to burst into flames. He thinks he saw it 2-4 days ago, bit it was actually 6 days ago. The titles and URLs on Mozillazine are not able to identify the post, because they are just general "forum" related data. He browsed Mozillazine a lot in the interim, and has tons of other Mozilla related browsing history.

He remembers it was on the "Places rant" thread (it was the Places history system  which was causing the printer fire) which he would probably recognise if he saw any of the 17 pages on the thread he browser at that time. He browses Mozilla-related sites, including Mozillazine, most days after class, so there is a lot of Mozilla-related history.
