(PRWEB) July 15, 2004 -- Technology Lighthouse has released LogMeister - a powerful Windows application that harnesses the wealth of information stored in your computer logs.

LogMeister is a universal log reader with customizable monitoring and notification features. It captures data from disparate sources including text files, Windows event logs (local and remote), ICF logs, RSS Feeds and web site status checks. You can employ powerful filters to home in on a specific point of interest, and merge data from multiple logs to facilitate time-line analysis. LogMeister not only takes the legwork out of data retrieval, but it also ensures that you get important information in a timely fashion. Use LogMeister's notification facilities to send email messages and alerts when events of interest occur, and even run your own scripts or generate new logs.

The interface maintains all tracked logs in an easy-to-read display, and allows you to export selected logs and views to formatted HTML reports, text, CSV or XML. This makes it easy to transfer data to other programs such as spreadsheets and databases. You can even publish logs as RSS feeds.

LogMeister is quick and easy to set up. Wizards guide you through most aspects of its configuration. This ease of use is complemented by considerable power and flexibility. Power users can monitor any system, service or application that can output status information to a log. They can also extend LogMeister's notification functionality by writing scripts to perform tasks such as restarting services or data archival and restoration.

The program can be used for many purposes, including early detection of security violations and hardware failure, detecting website downtime, application and system debugging, error management across networks, monitoring of web server log files, or even watching out for items of interest in RSS feeds.

Designed for use on Windows NT/2000/XP/2003, LogMeister harvests log data throughout your network without the need for additional installations. The application is theme-aware when running under Windows XP.
