If it's cached by Firefox, then you ought to be able to find it in the Cache
folder under the Firefox user profile.

In case you are not savvy to the Firefox profile internals (and in case you
haven't already tried this), you'll generally find that folder somewhere
under C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles on Vista,
C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Local Settings\Application
Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles on Windows XP, or
/Users/[username]/Caches/Firefox/Profiles on Mac OS X. The files will not
have a .css suffix, but you can order by date and drag the newest files
(skipping the largest ones) into Notepad (or TextEdit) one by one until you
find your CSS.

Hope that helps,
