Hi, what log file analysis program do you use? Are their any recent open source developments? I've heard of webalizer, but there don't seem to be any recent developments. My host is 1and1, so need something suitable for those types of files. So far I have just been using the 1and1 control penal to look at my stats, which is not really good enough. 70% of the information is excluded or unknown. I want to be able to target the pattern of specific users, and especially potential hackers. I submitted by site to a Russian only directory today by mistake and in response I was told that I would be subject to hack attack. So I really need to get my act together and start using a professional program to find out more about my visitors and how they use my site. Thanks, I am greatful for your excellent and very kind and helpful advice, in advance
