Anyone recommend a particular web log analyiser?
Prefer Webtrend but too expensive. Currently thinking about 123LogAnalyiser.
Any others that come recommended?
Thanks

I'd recommend AWStats. It's what I use for my clients (and my own) stats analysis. It needs some fiddling to set up, as it's designed to work with Apache, but you can get it to work with IIS.
It's free, released under the GPL license. If you're after an out-of-the-box solution, I would NOT recommend this, but if you want good stats analysis and are willing to spend an hour getting to grips with it and fiddling with IIS & Perl, you'll be onto a winner.
You can download it from Sourceforge:
http://awstats.sourceforge.net
Instructions on how to get it to work with IIS can be found at:

Good luck!
