Let me guess. It is a PS2 mouse plugged into a round hole.

Nope it is a Labtec Optical Mouse with a flat USB plug.
But it is rather old and well used so that is why I accepted the suggestion that it could be the reason why I suddenly lost ability to click on Menu to shut down. Every menu button flickered wildly as if the mouse had rapidly clicked on each of them in succession.
I did not dare let it go on so both time me used the ctrl+alt+backspace and then did reboot and the problem was gone.
Maybe a week between the two incidences. So it is not a big problem.
But I drew the conclusion me was attacked,. Had no idea a Mouse would create such odd behavior.

Nooby,
Mozilla Firefox and SeaMonkey keep very detailed logs of all your activity in the Cache, in a file called _CACHE_001_
A fairly simple bash script can strip the information you want as far as CONNECT, GET, POST and the specific URLs

Bruce, such is good to know.
Do they do this also if I set it to delete or erase everything when shutting down browser?
Oh I remember a year ago when I used XP daily I had a program named
CCeasy something. Hm me forgotten name. That program deleted much much more that many of the other programs that was supposed to delete all maleware and logs and such. What name did it have.
Wonder if there are such a program that Puppy can use from Ubuntu?

Puppy's standard firewall can log stuff. Look at /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall, you will see a parameter for logging. Probably some docs around somewhere to see how this particular script of iptables works, or you could modify it yourself by looking at general iptables documentation.

Paul it is obvipous me have to learn more for to be able to know how to set such up then.
There where nothing there now that I could recognize as a log or something to check on so most likely one have to activate that function first.

Just edit the file. You will see this up front:

Turn LOGGING="no" to LOGGING="yes". Also those other LOG things control the logging. See the hint about looking at the documentation first, and save a copy of your pupsave before messing with this stuff in case you bork something. I usually keep a backup copy of the original rc.firewall file there in that directory too.
I think you will have to turn off the firewall and then turn it on again, to see the effect in your logs. Again, refer to the documentation to be sure.
I have run with logging for a while, but not lately. Your logs can fill up with innocent crap if you are not careful.
