Hi,
Thanks. The problem is this is a nightly thing, webalizer always sends me this output.
Thanks.
Dave.

Hello,

combined log type. Webalizer runs via cron and this error is what i get
that's it. Any help appreciated.
Thanks.

Dave,

This is usually the result of something trying to get into your web
server by sending a load of control codes. I believe it is an attempt to
exploit a Windows web server weakness. The problem is that the control
codes fill up the apache log file and webilizer cannot handle the
record.

I usually ignore the error.

Rob
