    How I hate these third-party interfaces. It's slower than a typical windows application of this type should be, and things like Ctrl+Tab and Ctrl+Shift+Tab don't work. Grab a scroll bar knob, and the window content doesn't scroll with the cursor--you have to release, then it jumps suddenly.

    Other than that, yeah a flat view would be nice, and an easier way to set predefined filters (rather than opening multiple dialogs and navigating for a file). And no, the "quick filters" doesn't solve this problem. But still a helpful utility.

    Skyfrog: I gave it a 1 because they've spelled "standard" wrong in the file description. And because you can save downloading 2 megabytes by using a program that you already have on your computer.

    The advantages over other options includes one click access to event code explanations on MS (the explanations on the private site usually provide no useful info). It is an agile app and the user interface is professional. The Nirsoft alternative provides more information out of the log, giving better granularity, noting for example a CHAP logon event as opposed to a wdigest event while EL explorer simply reports them as logon events. So I say add both to your tool box. They're free after all.

    I also find Nirsoft's MyEventViewer a better viewer of events. It shows all events in a simple one window view, no need to keep opening up new windows to view details and its free and lite.

    Reviewing 3.0 Beta 1 (Mar 18, 2008)

    Ever since NirSoft's MyEventViewer came out (which BetaNews refuses to list), I uninstalled this annoying thing. MyEventViewer offers a flat (i.e. combined) list of events, which is just what I want. I got sick of Event Log Explorer constantly forgetting column sizes and settings as well.
