O.P. Cool  Messenger Plus! Event Log Reader
I recently updated my event log reader to work with the latest versions of Plus (since the log files now use the systems time format). It's still backwards compatible with old log files. Feel free to test it:

http://eventreader.csvs.co.uk/

The script reads your event log and displays infomation about your contacts:

- Their time online in a table/a list
- Possible blocks (where they came from either appearing offline or blocking you to a status other than online, or changed their name while blocking you/appearing offline)
- Every contact name recorded with the time they were set

You'll need an event log file, ideally archived by month (otherwise it will only display the results for the first month). You'll have to split the log files up manually if you have just one big file. Some time formats won't work, if you have one which doesn't, let me know the format you are using and I'll update the script.

If you have any questions just ask, hopefully it will get a lot clearer as to what the script does after you've run it with a few of your log files. Read the documentation for more infomation.

Let me know what you think.

That would be nice, but if he's like me and only knows how to do web scripting, that's not possible. :p

I could probably write it in VB but would have to learn more of the language, something for the future i guess.

Can look into make it unicode compatible, or at least mention that it isn't for the time being.

And would be cool if was linked to, thanks.

Glad you like it :)
