What distinguishes the people you want to exclude? Analog only has the information in the logfile. If you can distinguish the ones you want to exclude from that information, then analog can exclude them, and if you can't, it can't. So if the IP addresses don't give it away, then I guess you'll have to doctor their User-Agent fields, or something like that. Or get your server to write an extra field in the logfile, if your server can tell them apart. But from what you say, it sounds like the 'bad' visitors are currently indistinguishable from the 'good' visitors. -- Stephen Turner, Cambridge, UK http://homepage.ntlworld.com/adelie/stephen/ "This is Henman's 8th Wimbledon, and he's only lost 7 matches."
