n0c - no clue. its not my box. my machines work right (yeah, right 😉). I guess we dont rotate the logs, since they go back to the day he installed apache. why would this matter?

agamar - yeah, everyone here has logs full of code red, nimda, and variants. but thats not the odd part

n0c - any idea whats causing it though? the size (i copy/pasted) does not work out to any even multiple of the cluster size...
