Thanks for all replies but computer has now been power cycled so coins are gone. Power cycling is not so bad as letting OS and software to write data to it. When something is lost from hard drive by deletion the best action is pull out the power cord to write as less information as possible. Anyone who thinks they may be able to crack it then you're welcome to the booty! For that I need the physical hard drive or at least properly made sector by sector copy of it. I doubt anyone will trust me with such information as I might recover other data. Lol yeah I don't think I'll be sending any shadow copies of my drive, especially to recover about $200. |

P.S if you do crack it please be kind enough to send me the 3 BTC and you can keep the 10!

Yeah I noticed that after messing around with random integers! Although I never really thought about creating a custom string of characters.
Thanks for sharing!

BitcoinFog doesn't keep any logs  I think its safe to say the coins are gone. Thanks |

Recent Firefox versions overwrite the data when deleting browsing history.
The chance to recover is very small. Better chances of success is providing the Instawallet owner with information that only You know (such as access to Bitcoin Fog account from what the coins is sent) and that cannot be harvested from blockchain or some other source to prove that it is you who sent the transaction.
What sort of identifying information could I relay to the webmaster thats not readily available on the blockchain? I don't want to waste their time by sending them pointless info so any help is muchly appreciated. If I can retrieve the coins there will be some coins in for all that helped to the retrieval, including the webmaster of course! Thanks |

Whoops - shouldn't have cleared your browsing history.
You could try one of those "recover lost files" programs, and see if you can recover the URL in your browsing history. But install it on a different computer, slave the drive you are using, and do it that way, else the installation of said program may overwrite the data you are looking for.
The computer was not turned off and was left running the whole time. I started the bitcoinfog withdrawal about 3pm for 6 hours so finished around 5 minutes ago. The browser was opened and closed numerous times in 'private browsing' to paraipan, I used instawallet numerous times without issues just by c and p the url to a notepad. I could have sworn I saved it cos I remember typing in the total amount to be received to the wallet. I have checked the 'previous file versions' of notepad and found nothing. Thanks |

Is there any hope for me? InstaWallet is a low-security wallet, which doesn't require username or password to access the wallet. Thus knowledge of the URL gives the ability to spend the funds. Your browser will cache the browsing history, so unless you clear history you should be able to recover the URL from your browser. I clear everything upon closing the browser I read a topic of 'brute forcing' instwallet urls. Could this apply to my situation? Thanks How much was that? From where you received the coins? From BitcoinFog so multiple addresses and for around 13 coins. |

Hi everyone,
I'm sure this probably gets asked a lot but I lost my instawallet url.
I have the bitcoin address if that may carry some weight. Is there any hope for me?
PLEASEEEEEE lol.

Intersango are very well known for their lack of support.
I'm just about to finish up my orders with their system and be done with them for good.
Hopefully another UK domestic exchange can step up to the plate!

Thank you for your reply Graet.
Any idea where I can obtain some free source code or free tutorials for bitcoin arbitrage bots?
Thanks

I'm sorry if this is posted elsewhere but was just wondering why such a big discrepancy between the two?
I assume it could be due to the Intersango GBP transfer situation. Is there any way to exploit the drastic change?
Thanks

Hi, My opinion is a little biased but I would recommend you to look into OrangeWebsite.com. They are Iceland based hosting providers, offering shared-, VPS-, dedicated hosting solutions and domain registration services outside of the USA. You can sign up 100% anonymously and use Bitcoin as a payment method. Hosting your website in Iceland is something you might want to consider. They are famous of their ultra modern online freedom of expression legislation and strict privacy policy. P.S. It should be alright for you to use .com .net, .org domains, just use a domain registrar outside of USA.  Yeah what this guy said. I used them a few times. |

How long till I can trade on the marketplace? I pretty much only joined so I could sell some of my coins.  |

Just thought I would introduce myself I am a logo and graphic designer by trade and have started accepting bitcoins. I used intersango for a short while until they discontinued their GBP market and the EUR market is no good for me since I'm in the UK and the fees are horrific. |
