you have a lot of options.
on the free side:
awk can do this, but you'll have to do a lot of the coding yourself.
swatch and logsurf are two Perl tools you should be able to use on Win32
(possily with some minimal alterations and importing of modules). other
homegrown perl tools can help. this is a lot of work.
on the pay side, you can use tools like Netforensics to help collect and
mine the logs. they have modules for most popular firewalls and their
syslog messages:

thats definitely the lower pain, more bang for the buck route.
a good set of resources in this vein is:

and the associated mailing list/archives.
