OK Thanks Manish. I knew it was on a per user basis. But at least the events not logged during that time are not revealed. The other risk however is if someone turns off the logging without the user knowing then all events since that point in time are now logged from that moment forwards. Not everyone uses different accounts, especially when some video drivers cause fast user switching to crash.
