What good is it to run a service if you don’t know how much it’s being used? I’m all about making my workstation earn its keep. I’m running Windows XP Pro (Volume License). I like Apache, I like AWStats, and AWStats will handle streaming media server logs!

Scheduled tasks does the interesting things here…. It runs under my credentials, I have it run multiple times per day, copy the log files from the media server (which my username has administrative rights to, but isn’t required if the log folder is shared) and update AWStats.
