IIS3 only supports NCSa format or "Standard" format (IIS standard, that
is). Neither of these formats include browser information.
IIS4 also supports the Extended W3C Log format, which allows you to
include Browser information.
If you have IIS3, you can
a) upgrade to IIS4 (IIS4 is a much better Web Server, but the upgrade
process has been painful for some people).
b) install a custom Logile ISAPI filer (such as FlogU from
http://www.genusa.com/isapi/isapisrc.html or a commercial filter
http://www.maximized.com/products/flashstats/flashlog.htm. I found
these by searching AltaVista, and have no experience with either of
them)
c) If you have ASP installed, and are using an ASP as your home page (or
any other popular page) you could just add the following ASP code to
create your own AgentLog. It won't tell you about every visitor to your
site, but it may be good enough in the short term.
<%
Dim fs, a
Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set a = fs.OpenTextFile("D:\LogFiles\AgentLog", 8, True)
a.Write Date & ", " & Time & ", "
a.Write Request.ServerVariables("Remote_Host") & ", "
a.WriteLine Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_User_Agent")
a.Close
Set a = nothing
Set fs = nothing
end if
%>
If you are running IIS4, but the Active Log format box is blank, so that
you can't change format, open a DOS prompt, and type
CD \WINNT\SYSTEM32\INETSRV
REGSVR32 LOGUI.OCX
Then you should be able to change the Log format to Extended, and select
User Agent on the Extended Properties tab.

On NT4, SP3 can I get IIS to log the browser information? I look at the
log files now and don't see it so it can be reported. Am I wasting my time
looking how this can be done?
My log file now looks like: (a typical line without browser information).
