 	The first edition of this book was printed in 1998.  Near as I can 
tell, there was no second edition.  My guess is that it just didn't sell 
well...and this seems to be confirmed by the comments of Amazon users who 
bought the book.

 	Anyway, you could check for a more current title on the same 
subject at O'Reilly's site: http://security.oreilly.com/ .  See also the 
related books listed at http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/winlog/index.html .

 	So it would seem.  I tend to siphon the data and store it locally 
since everything useful on the web usually winds up being a 404 by the 
time I can really use it.

 	I've been getting used to it.  Sometimes I think it's technology's 
way of trying to teach me patience.
