A program like freeware Baregrep (http://www.baremetalsoft.com/baregrep/)
might be helpful to you.

Do you not regularly cycle your logs and submit them?

Subject: [sniffer] False Positives

So when I asked how I would send in false positives, someone mentioned that
I should look up the appropriate log entry and send that in.  That brings up
another question.  My log file is 270MB and climbing.  I've never opened it
cause it's too big.  Do you have a reader for your log files? 

I think it would be nice to have a little list of things to do to send in
false positives:


1. Have your users send you the false positive.  Save it as an .eml file (?)
2. Look up (somehow) the entry in your log file that corresponds to that 
.eml file.  Copy and paste that text into a new email.
3. Send an email from your primary Sortmonster email address, attaching 
the .eml file and any log portion as necessary.

Is this correct?
