There are over 300 sites on the server which quite a few of them have stats
from search engines to prove that their are hits to the site. Also, some
code which records which pages are visited (coded into each ASP page) also
reflect the visits.

As far as the error log goes, we get quite a number of the following:

----Application Log- w3svc - event ID 2265
The registry key for IIS subauthenticator is not configured correctly on
local machine, the anonymous password sync feature is disabled.

We occasionally get some of these:

----Server Log - http - Event Id 15006
Owner of the log file or directory
D:\siteusername\LogFiles\W3SVC321\ex040331.log is invalid. This could be
because another user has already created the log file or the directory.

Try this one:

Also, check the ownership of the logfiles directory.
Whichever account is actually creating the logfile does
not have the rights to possibly...
