Note that you can add most "unsupported" browsers yourself because they're all based on one of the standard engines (WebKit, Mozilla or Chrome) and HistoryHound lets you specify which one it should look for.

With the flexible indexing I have History Hound can search archives of NetNewsWire, and even your own webpages, etc (if you're a web developer, this can be nice for finding a snippet you put into a site, etc).

So many times I need something and remember that I saw it on the web but of course I can't remember where. So, I jump to HH, enter a word or phrase and HH quickly gives me a list of all the sites that contain the word or phrase according to relevance. HH has saved me many hours searching for old sites I need to visit again.
The developer (St. Clair Software) of HH is awesome, they have great customer support. If you can't find an answer to your question in the forums, he usually answers you within an hour.
Love the company & the products.

It was a close call. The couple of times I needed it, it did save me some time and effort, but I found I didn't call on it all that often.
Also, the search process was still a little slow, at least on my computer. In the time History Hound took sorting through all my pages, I could be halfway through a new google search.
But there were those couple of times, on a subject I had been researching over time, that it was a great help getting back to the pages I needed.

After turning the proxy off, HistoryHound does work. It is a very nice app. I hope they fix this soon (and not in a paid upgrade)!
Now that I have experience with the error log. It would be nice to have check boxes (or other options) on the error-log page to re-attempt to index unreachable pages. As it works now, it seems you have to re-index the whole shebang to pick-up connection-errors.
