[analog-help] Analog not working with webpage

I can't find the analog event/error log, where is it located?
As I'm looking at the logfiles of the server, it seems there are 4-5 
logfiles for each month.
Each log is anywhere from about 90-250MB.
In my request on the web form, I am asking for stats for an entire month 
(June 2006) - which would equal to about a gig of log files that it would 
have to go through.
Could that be the problem?  But this problem only appeared recently and I"m 
pretty sure that other users have been running monthly stats like that 
previously.
