Fastcache Fastcache from AnalogX will do it. Go into Config and enable logging. It will make a new file each day. But the reason I use it is because it caches the IP address. If I go back to a site that I've been to recently, it tries the last IP address - quicker than a distant DNS server. The user will see it running (in the tray) and can turn off logging. Or is there a program to hide specified processes?

I don't know but I'd assume You would need to make a pc into a Server/Router and have everything going through that to be able to do that..Lots of numbers and info everywhere so you had better enjoy reading.Huge subject and not one I know enough about.

A script You could try a 'kludge'. On boot up, each PC would copy it's previous log file to your computer. So you would see the lists from the previous 24 hours (assuming one boot up per day).

On the other hand You could get an old 486 or slow Pentium, install IPCOP (a small Linux system) and use it as a proxy server and cacheing server. This gives your network more protection from external hacking, and reduces bandwidth demand - assuming several users look at the same page(s). Not sure about the logging options. Google is your friend.
