Modem Log Analyser

The Modem Log Analyser application was developed to be a small tool that analyzes your standard Windows Dialup modem log file, and calculates time online, cost, uploads / downloads, modem efficiency, etc., presenting you with an easy to comprehend (in contrast to the messy modem log file itself) overview of your time on the Internet.
Before you can even use the modem log analyser, you must create a modem log file! NOTE: This will only work if youre using the standard Windows Dialup to connect to the Internet. If you use any other program, it may have its own logging feature which will be wholly incompatible with MLA.
Follow these instructions to set up the log file:
1. You require that log file recording be switched ON. To do this, first find a file called "Scripter.exe" (or just "Scripter" if visible file-extensions is turned off) - probably in your "Windows" directory. If not, dont panic, just use the Windows "Find" utility (in the start menu) to track the file down.
2. Run the Scripter. Click "Properties", the "Configure", then the "Connection" tab, and finally "Advanced"! Then simply tick the "Record a log file" box (if its already ticked, youve just wasted the past half-hour. Click all the "OK"s to exit.
3. Dont bother looking for it yet, you still have to connect to the net to start logging. Be careful when logging off too - dont carelessly turn your modem straight off by the switch - click "Disconnect", or it might not log properly.
4. Now go to your Windows directory (e.g. C:\Windows) and your newly conceived log should be there under the name "ModemLog.txt" (if not, try that "Find" program again). May as well take a look at it (with NotePad, or any other plain text editor), prove to yourself that you cant make much of that gibberish, without MLAs help! It will match the basic layout in Figure 2 - the lines "Dialing.", "Hanging up the modem.", and "Session Statistics:" being the keys here.
5. Time to let MLA do its stuff now! Wait, dont forget to fill out the initialization file (mla.ini), which must be in the same directory as MLA. Open it with your text editor and make sure all the details are correct.System requirementsInternet connection through the standard Windows Dialup
