HLStats has no advertising popups. That must have been what the installer added. Although HLStats does miss some stats and it would help if Simon re-designed the way he saves the data so more efficient and effective stats can be derived. Nonetheless, here are some of it's strong points: - Processes in real time and not by saved logs. - Easily supports multiple MODs and multiple Servers. - Although it has some basic awards, it's fairly easy to add more awards or even adjust the stat modifiers. Although it doesn't provide all of the stats I would like, the first 2 features I listed were a must for our stats requirements. The others (the other 2 and a few others that I've tested in the past) don't even come close. So, for an existing stat program, HLStats works for us. Everyone prefers different things, so what works for me may not be important for you. That's fine. > Log-Anal - First off get a real name.

You can view that with even more detail and a more chronological way in HLStats. When looking at a player's detail stats, there's a link toward the upper right to view the player's "Event History". We'll continue to use HLStats until something comes along better (which hasn't) or I develop my own again (used to have a custom one a few HL versions back).
