I am measuring in gigs now my log file increases. I have twin 18G drives in
my cobalt boxs and I'm to the point of seriously considering not logging and
only turing it on for individual sites when they complain. Most of my site
owners have no clue to their log files anyways. I'm really starting to get
annoyed with billy's lapse of security in his products and his unwillingness
to acknoweledge those defects as a real threat to the internet. His lack of
responsible care and M$'s PR campaign against the real threat their product
introduce to the net on a whole is a total slap in the face towards those of
us who do our best to keep the net a safe place for our clients.
