“ I discovered a tool that is fantastic: Tail4Win. Tail4Win is much like the Linux/Unix and Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit command line versions, except it is wrapped nicely in a graphical interface. Within the same tool you can monitor different log files using tabbed windows similar to Firefox and Internet Exploer 7. ”
