One hates to say it but

 

All current Windows systems have an object that does this

 

http.sys

 

Http.sys can be used by an application using HTTP (if one wishes to use 
http.sys), and all these apps can use the same IP / Port (or not).

 

One can read the http.sys error log with Log Parser like this

 

LogParser.exe "SELECT * FROM HTTPERR"

 

I will soon have an Apache post where one will using the Windows .NET 
automation toool,

PowerShell (like sed, bash, and perl but dealing with complete objects instead 
of only text), 

to check the http.sys error log. One will be able to compare these http.sys's 
error times to 

the times within the Apache access log and the Apache error log. This will also 
demo "finding 

same time" log actions for possible trouble checking of Apache.
